Come one, come all!
Come to my circus,
There's plenty here to see!
Have a balloon
A nice shiny red balloon
Come one, come all!
You delectable little
Delights!
I have in my kitchen
A cook preparing my feast!
Come one, come all!
And don't forget the seasoning!
My, you're a porky fellow
You're just the right size!
I'm not sure if you'll fit, though. . .
Come one, come all!
I'm sure you'll like the show
There's monkeys and donkeys
And men on tight ropes
Hark! the acrobats call for you
Come on, come all!
To my celebration feast!
I'd hate for you to miss
The fun to be had inside!
Come, you'll be my main attraction!

*trembles with fear*
That clown!
I feel like I should be peaking behind my shoulder like something's going to eat me or something now. xD
Great use of writing creepy and convincing at the same time -

This was spooky, for some reason it reminded me of Hannibal! Anyway, as much as I enjoyed the originality in this poem, I am going to remove it because it's not exactly what I'm looking for. I hope you understand.
Thank you anyway

Damn, that's creepy!

I went ahead and added it to the poem for you.

Creeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeepy! There's a picture of a clown on a building nearby us, makes me think of the same thing, although it's not as detailed in creepiness as this, for some reason, it is a creeply clown. The picture adds to the poem, but didn't look to see if you are a paid member or not, would look great at the top of the poem if you can add pictures.
Write on!

/It/ is kind of what I modled the poem after. I saw the picture and thought "Pennywise!"

"We all float down here!" - Pennywise -
Seriously that picture freaks me out so much because I'm one of the many kids of my generation who was tramatized by clowns because of that damn Stephen King's It.
This was very well done. You used metaphors I would never think of, so kuddos to you for that! Thanks for this great entry and good luck!
