Punch for a laugh
Cambodia — silly poems for your backpack
Oct 4, 2023
Sat around eating dinner,
Having a few beers.
Chatting, chilling having fun,
Chil moi! Khmer for cheers.
We’re all in good spirits,
And I decided to crack a joke.
Then whack, what the hell.
I received quite the poke.
A punch you could say, or maybe a slap,
I thought I’d offended the host,
But it’s a way of showing you’re funny,
And it’ll hurt you the most.
While I travel, I enjoy writing a bit of poetry, mostly silly stuff, but all to remember the fun I had.
I publish them all on Medium, so check out my other poems here.
