My Clone

you start with a clown, you end up with a clown. (Carpenter's Law)


Poem Artwork

I cloned a clown,

A clown I cloned.

I made him just like me.

And when my clone

Became full grown,

We clowned around with glee.

The clown I cloned

Will be alone

When someday I shall die.

Unless he clones another clown

That looks the same as I.

I cloned a clown,

A clown I cloned.

I made him think like me.

His thoughts would be

The same as mine.

We’d never disagree.

He’d be my friend

Right to the end

And, when I ceased to be,

My clown could clone another clown

To think and talk like me.

I cloned a clown,

A clown I cloned.

I made him to be free

Of all plagues and diseases

That befuddles you and me.

And, when my clone was perfect,

For everyone to see,

My heart began to sorrow.

He no longer looked like me.

I cloned some clowns,

And taught my clowns

To clone more clowns like me.

So we could live forever,

Just my clever clones and me.

Ahhhhh, Lonny, you clever clown-clone, you.. leave it to you to stick some thought provoking current inside your tongue-twisting and masterful delight of a poem. I didn't dare read it aloud, fearing that my tongue would be knotted for the day, so, silly me, I read it in my head! Sigh.. now you've got my thoughts jumpin' around and my feet won't stop tapping... ain't a bad thing!! (grin) I kept thinking, you couldn't hardly blame Charlene if she's flirting with these guys.. since there'll all you! hehe.. what an enticing invitation to rethink that old adage "variety is the spice of life".. LOL. The picture had me on the floor! You're a pip, you are.. katy xox.
