Coulrophobia

(Poem by Serenus)

Ghostly

Chalk white face

With a blood smeared smile

Dead dark eyes

That beam into the

Soul of a child

 

A freakish laugh

That sounds off as a warning

Razor sharp teeth...used to keep

Countless mothers mourning

 

The monster hiding under the bed

That gives your children chills

Playgrounds keep him fed

And babies are his “happy meals”

 

He is not your friend

Don’t believe his lies

He’ll eat your kids- alive

With a side of fries

He's a madman -Its apparent

He uses the alias Ronald...

Warning to ALL parents...

Stay the hell away

From McDonald's!

Hahaha....I relate to this. When I was small we went to the Barnum and Bailey Circus every year because we knew a guy who worked there as an usher. I was petrified of the clowns, I remember that quite vividly. One spoke to me once, and I nearly melted into my mother's leg..as i tried to become invisible, so i wouldn't have to respond. I think it is a common fear because they can appear scary from a child's perspective!

[Sirius King]

lol very true...even as an adult they r still creepy lol

thanx

[Sunny Skye]

LOL! Nice i was never scared to clowns but they can come off ad scary. Their pale faces and their weird makeup makes them look weird and creepy and lets not forget the weird colored wigs! Nicely written and nice pictures.

[Sirius King]

[C.C. Marx]

When i was five, i was scared to death of that horrible clown. I went in there one time and they had some guy dressed up as him handing out balloons and i freaked!

[Sirius King]

he really is a monster lol

[C.C. Marx]

yep he tried to hand me a balloon so i kicked him in the shins

[Sirius King]

LOL! Good Job! haahha

[C.C. Marx]

thank you thank you, let's just say my mom didn't find it amusing. Neither did ronald.

[Sirius King]

lol... i bet :-)

[C.C. Marx]

ronald had a few choice words for me and none were exactly PG

[Sirius King]

LOL that evil b*****d! haahaha

[That_Girl]

This fear is completely justified. IT gave me nightmares for months. You know, I've always hated McDonald's for their food...maybe it was actually because of creepy Ronald McDonald. I have a picture somewhere, I'll have to post it, of Ronald being hauled away by cops and the caption is something like "What did I do? She said she was hungry so I have her McDick!" Referring to a kid. Funny but gross cause its not too far off.

Anyways, love the poem! Clowns are horrible.

[Sirius King]

im at work, and ur comment made me laugh until tears came lol...it is sick, but i couldn't help it lol

thanx!...clowns are horrible, I've always found them to be creepy ugh

[That_Girl]

Hahaha don't get in trouble! ;) it's so funny it's sick. And vice versa lol

I know. The circus would come to town and I'd stay at home that night... Doors and windows bolted. They freaked me out. Plus, has no one heard of John Wayne Gacey??

[Sirius King]

exactly, clowns are never funny and are always weird,,, IT has to be the worst tho
i kinda get the same vibe from guys dressed as santa lol

and John Wayne Gacey was jus nuts lol

[That_Girl]

YES! I have pictures somewhere of me when I was like 3 screaming in terror while on his lap. They're just as creepy.

[Sirius King]

its how grown ups torture kids and we call it tradition lol

[That_Girl]

It's completely fucked up. Plus, kids don't even believe in Santa for long anymore. Why quicken the process? Heh

[Sirius King]

well i was brought up believing santa was satan,,,so im dealing with a whole other load of issues lol

[That_Girl]

lmao non Christian family or....?

I stopped believing at about 6 when he stopped coming lol XD

[Sirius King]

Christian and crazy lol

they made sure i knew exactly who bought the gifts under the tree
and refused to share credit with some jolly white man dressed in red lol... i doubt if santa would visit my neighborhood if he was real... his slay and reindeer would be jacked quick! lol

[That_Girl]

Bahahahaha I'm pretty sure I'd love your parents. That's pretty hilarious. lol that's probably true for mine as well.

[Sirius King]

lol yea...it makes since tho..now

[That_Girl]

[That_Girl]
