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!

Oh, wow! The poem started out great with just the perfect amount of spookiness to give me a little gooseflesh, then it completely flipped sides to make me laugh out loud! Great job on evoking emotion. It flowed very well. Great work!
