Roll up. Roll up. the circus contest is in town

Hello Soupers, new contest.

I would like you to write a poem about you becoming a circus performer.

Which of the many skills would you like to try, Trapeze, knife thrower or catcher
juggling, clown ( I hate clowns) the MC, Bearded lady (no reflection to the females) or the man with two heads ( no reflection to the guys) even the people who erect the big top etc.

I do not want to hear about your experience of a circus as a child or adult, or your views on circus animals, as I do not want any animal poems. This is for fun.

I have posted my example, " Afraid of Heights"

You may have or had a yearning to run away and join the circus, now's your chance to reach dizzy heights and have fun while still keping your feet on the ground.

It's time we had a bit of fun on this site I think....enjoy

Any form 20 lines max, or a series of Senryu's or Haiku's, your choice

No names or pictures please...

Any questions ask here, or soup me.....

Please stay on topic with your comments. Off topics comments may be removed. Thanks.
