No One Likes Being The Fool

Today is April Fool’s Day
and I usually spend
most of today
disconnected from the world.

Why?

Because like most people,
I don’t like being played
for a fool.
I don’t like being tricked.
I don’t like being lied to.

It decimates my trust
of the other person or business.

So why does April Fool’s Day
continue
to exist?

Because some people LIKE
tricking other people
or making people look
like fools.

And even more people
like watching
that sh*t.

If you’re planning events today,
remember no one actually likes
BEING the fool.
