Crazed Clown: 1991_ColorPencil1 by Carol Hershey

10/27/09_Poem by Betina Hershey Russo

I feel like
a crazed clown:
bloodshot eyes,
brain waves screaming
AIIIIEEEEE!

I feel like
a ferris wheel
out of control
in a misty grey
sky while children
scream
MOOMMMYYYY!

I feel like
a red pen scraping
across a page
marking out a mouth
for such a frazzled
face. om.
