The Clown

Sprayed all over walls
Scribbled, like rich and creamy
Whips of salad dressing

His looks empty, but his smile wide
With obnoxious intent
A kid on a sunday outfit

Sat erect, dormant like black coffee
His sister with eyes fixated  to oblivion
And counting vultures along the way

The rest became splattered raggedy  dolls
More empty faces, and sunday outfits
Thus the joke started

With each line, a laceration
Each hum, a slash
There's no rhyme in his desecration

As he continued  painting like Picasso
On steroids, costumed colorfully 
His canvass, everywhere

His paintbrush, a kitchen knife
With Mozart playing rigid and funny
But nobody's laughing anymore
