I don’t usually post two poems on the same day, but here goes. This is in response to the first-ever prompt from the new Big Tent Poetry. Click on the image below to enlarge. In many browsers. you can click on the bigger image, too, to make it EVEN BIGGER. Crazy!

Thanks, man! Let’s find a director — you can do the music.
Great read. Fantastic imagery and loved the sustained metaphor of the clown :D!

Brilliant story telling, great fun (!)
Thanks, Vivienne!
Jason,
Excellent story here. Love the reference to Sammy Davis Jr.’s song Candyman. Made me laugh.
Pamela
oh, great. you found us. 🙂
thanks for using our prompt … it was nice to hear you read this one at valentine’s on tuesday!
This was funny & creative, a hoot to read! I can’t pick a favorite, although singing Candyman is particularly hysterical.
Glad you joined the Big Tent. Welcome!
@Pamela: The wham of Sam is always good for a laugh. Thanks!
