The Circus

Fun

The Circus

 

Mary worked at the circus, she was a clown

She and the troupe went from town to town

She liked to meet people, they kept her fed

Cause it was as a vampire, that she’d been bred

 

There she met John, who seemed a nice guy

But then he had boasted, he was able to fly

He said he was a vampire, all full of fright

And he’d do a ‘demo’ the very next night

 

He wore his black cape with collar turned up

His eyes were shinning a startling bright red

His skin was colored like the walking dead

With no undue ado, cross the tarmac he sped

 

Ka’thunk!! a definite flight failure type sound

At the base of a tree, a fake vampire mound

The excuses that he was heard to have said

Were useless because, Mary ate him instead

Aha! People kept her FED. Sorta like that Twilight Zone episode about the aliens having a book called "To Serve Man". This poem is a little bit nuts and totally fun! Also, your artwork is amazing.

Reminds me I haven't had one for awhile. Whenever I eat one in the middle of the winter it feels like taking a mini-holiday????
