A Clown


I am a clown

When people laugh I feel so down.

I’m a jokester

But people think

I’m quite the oyster

They say

You stupid clown

You’re no genius but don’t be down.

Besides you’re the town’s fool.

But I’m not no tool.

Besides I’m smart

Just give me a start.

But they just laugh 

Because I have the mark of a fool.

But I am smart

Besides here’s a start

A man is the enemy

One that’s bigger than me

And that is us!

Man that kept this world stapled

And man that will destroy it.

It’s not about pollution or Warming.

But how we destroy population

Before this is an end

I’ll make a change then

Getting my degree.

This clown has one more betting

To amends.

Change is its name 

Change it shall be.

Change is the future!
