Serious Clown

I doubt the fact that there could be
a downside to ascension,
It's something that I've said before
but just forgot to mention.

I believe that atheism
is the only true religion,
I'm not certain but I think
this maybe my decision.

I sometimes think I'm always wrong
but mostly I'm never right,
and I think that I'm intelligent
but I don't think I'm too bright.

I never think about my thoughts
just assume that they are true,
and always try to learn about
something I always knew.

I'm happy just to be myself
and I never wear a frown,
I wouldn't change for anything
I am the serious clown.

    Wow, I really can relate to this poem. I felt the same way through the whole of school. It really made me think. I'm having problems with the whole religion thing lately, but it's good to have other peoples opinions.
    Although, great poem. Keep it up.

    Ah this was fun to read! I really enjoyed this!!! You got me muddled a bit at the wrong and never right part because you caught me off -guard. Then I paid more attention hehe. The concept of a 'serious clown' I find very original (I don't know if it isn't but I think it is!!) and I really like the way it flows in a simple, conversational style that, to me, seems like a 'This is me, accept it' type of approach (which is awesome because that's the way I am too!! Thanks for entering!!!

    Lol... this is great. It's always kind of refreshing whenever I read a poem like this... the authors own words about themselves. Even if this is made up, I bet there's some personal truth in it
