Killing Clowns

Tony36

3:30 in the morning 

Not a soul in sight 

Ronald McDonald' running away in fright 

Someone stealing hamburgers and killing all the clowns

Now they're stalking the most famous one around

      Thank you

      I liked this one Tony. You have to understand the images of McDonalds and Burger King to grasp it and the use of time when many of these places close. Clever and short. A fun read

        There's a can worms to open, my la! I never realized clowns were perceived as creepy until I'd been an adult for too long. Funny, mebbe that's the reason a certain pizza joint doesn't have any clownish mascot. Fascinating and thought-provoking with excellent imagery and a deeply haunting poignancy. Thank you for sharing.

          Our Parliament is full of Clowns at the Mo.
          Though I'm not one for 'Fast Food' so I'll take everyone's word for these places.
          Good Poem.

                the question is who is stalking whom.. a scary thought... people are flabbergasted by what's happening these days
