Poem: How do you do! Pleased to meet you,
What a splendid time we've had,
Let me introduce you to my friends
the mad, the sad, and the glad.

Friends! Come in! Sit a while, partake, enjoy the view,
You see what is absurd is really only a point of you.
A point of view is a point of you,
Bill the Messiah would say,
So sit here, rest a while,
For time is all you'll pay.

Reality is what we see but folks don't listen to me,
Hear the voices and rejoices,
Of every man and beast.
The mind is a feast and the not the least,
A morsel, one, two, third,
Come in, sit down, and listen at,
The Theatre of the Absurd...
