Great evil clown write! I was amazed many years ago when I learnt there are many who fear clowns. This was a new concept to me. Great write.

Everybody, even Insano, needs love :-P
But he'd better get serious dental and facial makeovers (not to mention therapy, AND Jesus.)

Best 2 U on the contest. This should replace that muppet on "Tales of the Crypt."

keep the light on Sis Karla!

Do you recall the serial murderer way back who was a clown....sent to parties to entertain children but wooed young boys off the street to murder them and bury them under his house.
A clown face masks many things. One can hide the brutal nature of a beast and others' can be the honest jester who thrives on mamking laughter.
One never knows.
Your poem gave us the one side.
very well done.

YIKES! That is one clown I would NOT want to meet at night! That is one crrreeeeeeeeeepy clown!!

But sadly, there are people who live in fear of the clown, and clowns bring terror instead of laughter! Sobering, dark write!
