Life's a Circus

The young boy wondered what was life's purpose

And soon he figured life was a circus

So he kept aside the frown

And became a clown

He stumbled on the stage

For people of all age

He swayed with the air, he

was wafer-like thin

But he carved on his face a perpetual grin,

Beneath the paint, hid his pain

Laughter was also accompanied by disdain,

What in life was worthy of being sad

Life at times was just too damn bad

The world won't care, the world won't ask

You just need to put on one big funny mask.
