No Crown For a Clown

No Crown for who is A Clown,
His Kingmaker automatically A Clown:
The Clown who receives one
Has a rarity won
To urgently tell us what he’s done:
What fastens Governance on Fun
Or our faces shall don a frown …
No Natural nor Self-Made Clown
Should near a Gold Crown
Nor its harmonic Kingly Gown, 
Be he White Clown, Black or Brown …

I shall like a bad swimmer drown,
If Crowns begin to uplift The Clown;
Flyer who could a plane down.
Storm I shall a noiseless town:
A green leaf changed to brown.
