The Joker
- Why So Serious?
My father was a drinker and a fiend; and one night he goes off crazier than usual. Mommy gets the kitchen knife to defend herself. He doesn't like that, not one bit. So - me watching - he takes the knife to her, laughing while he does it. He turns to me and he says: "why so serious?" He comes at me with the knife. "Why so serious?" sticks the blade in my mouth. "Let's put a smile on that face!"
