A Poem by gram linski

Reflections
-
The rabid, damaged clown
             somersaults in madness
                                             and darkness
     peels off his face
make - up dripping          blood - like,
                                                   pooling
revealing the monkey within
-
     EEEEEE      OOOOOO      AAAAAA
-
s**t flying, like unborn thoughts,
almost human features     fingers
grabbing fur and tearing
    l i  p   s
         e   y    e      s
                 n    o       s             e           the monkey mask
ripped free
a tangled mat of savage teeth
                                       and hair
-

and lurking inside
-
                                 mirror mind
-
     the smudged orange eye
                            ( recognised wink, )
of a rabid, damaged clown,
          simian, predatory grin     swimming
                                                                    within

Hello, gram! :)
I'm curious about what inspired this. It reads like hate and understanding. I think maybe I can relate introspectively. Haha
