The Clown's Song

Bring me a child to eat
I'm too weak to stand on my feet
All I need is meat
So bring me a child to eat.

Your sense of humor bounced off of my walls, and did a little zingy dance around me with this one. WHOA.....you are a writer to be reckoned with, Jessica! Love it!

I actually do find clowns very creepy. Except for INTENTIONAL horror clowns in B-movie horror. Those are less creepy than the ones who didn't mean to scare kids and are too narcissistic to understand that's pretty much all they do.

A UK study found clowns who show up at hospitals to "entertain" kids make kids wary and afraid because painted faces are "unknowable." Their damaged sense of safety lowers immunity, hampers healing. Yet clowns keep showing up at hospitals! It's sadistic.
