Clown
White painted face
red lips of expression
face representing emotion,
infinite humor but poetry
behind every motion.
A youthful curiosity,
sparking imaginaton of it's occupancy.
A man behind the make-up
stoik and unaware,
from loneliness depression releases anger from drunken
confrontations and swears,
he's scared.
Only freedom is behind someone
elses character but feeling more
himself as if he
transformed into a new form.
Depression subsides,
joy and pleasure of
entertaining others for smiles,
his dedication
and all other problems are reconciled
Under his domain
not a man about town,
that's why they gave him the name,
a clown.
