Why Be A Clown In Someone Else's Circus

Why Be A Clown In Someone Else's Circus

When you can be one

In your own

Side show

Watch out

For those opportunistic

Trapeze artists

Waiting & Wanting

To forebode your talents

As their own

Since they're many

Ringmasters of merited misfortune

Lurking about

Under the big top

Of a frenzy carnival

Looking to recruit anyone

 

Who's gullible enough

For a chance

At being apart of

A marvel exhibition

Meant to exploit

The nature of our lives

As a once in a lifetime spectacle

 

Used to propel profitability

For a crazed circus business

That's seen by the audience

As the greatest show on planet earth

Every available night

Until the side show tour 

Officially draws to a close

Author's Note

Just something a little different I'm trying out here. All reviews welcome, thanks for stopping by & enjoy. :)

Great analogy. If you must play the fool, let it be for your own amusement. I liked this one, a lot.
