The Dark Clown

The Dark Clown

by Kelp

The Dark Clown
Knows u well
The Dark Clown
Greets u unexpectedly
The Dark Clown
Bays at the moon
The Dark Clown
Yelps and screeches
The Dark Clown
Wears uncomfortable shoes
The Dark Clown
Skips across

the room

The Dark Clown
Grits teeth
The Dark Clown
Afraid
The Dark Clown
Armpits stained with perspiration
The Dark Clown
Beads of sweat above the lip

The Dark Clown
Has a round, red nose

The Dark Clown
Has a smoke.

Disappears
into
the
smoke.
