the joker turns up again

opens his mouth

falls through his own trap door


flipper feet cannot break the fall

this clown

degenerate descendant


of harlequins of the old Comedia


sinister beyond the circus creepiness

but still ridiculous


looking like a fat woman

wearing a housecoat


boy haven't we all come down

now none of us can get out


of the tiny car...
