Step right up Come down below Welcome To the side show See rodeo clowns Spiral down Tendrils Twine around Hobo Give us thrills Break our hearts Star attraction there’s No sadder show revealed Sure To tear you apart

Beneath the mask, the well-painted face of one who is either filled with joy, sadness or deceit. Take your pick folks! So good Anaya! Reminds me of a song by Blue Magic entitled, "Sideshow"...ab

Anselmo, let the side show begin, step right on in! I was inspired by "Joker." Great oldie!

Anaya, I posted a recent blog note about Rico . Always the magical spirits with sad eyes and open hearts . Clowns encompass both dark and light . A joy to watch and sometimes sad as well . Hugs, Susan :)

You either fear clowns or find them sad. Got to be the big feet.

Why do pictures of clowns smiling always seem so sad (lol) We need more Bozo's.. the only clown that actually ever made me smile :) Fantastic write, Anaya!

Because they are! I agree Bozo is the most famous clown in the world! I am honored for your visit and comment..

Ooh. You've nailed this one, Anaya! Nothing sadder than clown shows, methinks -- and the sad people who exist behind the make-up and the mask. Cheers, Gershon

It's all a performance, just like the smile on his face! I agree Gershon. Thanks for the visit, I am honored!

Hey that’s some trippy clown you painted Anaya, side show Patrick would go down a treat at our Paddy’s day parade in Dublin, a very skilful imaginative piece, cheers David

Rodeo clowns jump in and save the cowboys, brave lifesavers! Thank you, David
