Poet/Actor/Clown
I’m a poet and showman, want you to be
amused, or sad when needed, shake your
head fondly say I’m being ridiculous, but
don’t ignore me because I’m an actor too
timid to stand in front of an audience.
I can live in the basement, at the bottom
of your garden, or in deep shadow under
a carob tree. I cut pieces off my soul, post
them to you in the hope you may feel
Entertained, laugh and think well of me.
