The Zany

We watched the zany with delight,
Putting on his downtown show.
Throwing objects I the air,
Trading insults to and fro.
Wearing colors loud and brash to
Draw attention to his act.
Smell of greasepaint,
Funny shoes,
Bangles dangling down his back.
King of slapstick, simple fool,
Extravagant buffoon.
Ludicrous reminder of
A Saturday cartoon.
Silly little clown,
Crazy comic, king of fools.
He draws his largest audience
When he throws out all the rules.
