I Am The One

I am the court’s jester

Forever the fool

I am the one

Getting dunked

Into the pool

I am the one

Pretending to laugh

I am the one

Pretending to smile

I am the one

Who hides

What is inside

Preferring privacy

When I cry

I am the court’s jester

I am out of a job

I angered the queen

When I broke down to sob

I am the one

Without a job

I am the one

With an angry mob

I am the one

Who will be well fed

Just before the queen

Shouts out

“Off With Her Head!”

I find myself "Dancing With Cancer", problem is...I can't dance. I stumble, bumble, and get pulled along. To keep my sanity, (humor me), I write short stories, a journal, musings and poetry....just about anything goes.

  2. Like it! That first photo is very appealing, too.
