Full Armor of a Clown
By
Frank Lilpoeta Fernandez
This Poem is basically the finale to Human emotion series
To be Honest
To put on a full armor of a clown
It’s not easy
Because to be Honest
Each comedian that brought us joy and laughter.
Down Deep in their lives
Something was missing in their life.
Don’t ask me
How do I know
The real definition of a clown
To be honest
I grew up watching a real clown go through so many emotional episodes of their personal lives.
Robin Williams is the best example of a clown
Box office hits after Box Office hits
An Oscar win for Good Will Hunting
Flops after Flops.
We adults knew he was putting on the full armor of a clown.
Another example
Is Kevin Conroy the voice of Batman
Explains the truth of why he voiced Batman
Because he went through a lot of traumatic experiences with his Parents.
Money doesn’t make you happy
Food doesn’t make you full
Family is we all need in life
Friends come and go.
But to be honest
There are 5 ingredients in a clown that exists in the human aspect
1.The Mask-Represents Hidden Emotions
2.The Costume-Represents heavy Burdens of life.
.Family
.Marriage
.Money
.fulfillment
3.The Wig-Represents Fanbase of Generations
4.The Gloves- Represents The Decision from Right from Wrong.
5.Finally The Shoes-Actually represents the Roles they play in media
To be honest With you guys
Robin Williams was the real clown.
He actually did a great job hiding it underneath the clown costume.
Don’t let the whole world tell you otherwise
Because Being clown is easy
It’s not easy.
