The clown

I passed a clown in the fog
He waved as he circled wax
A tribute to the fallen smiles
And the one he lacks
Downward spirals do bear waits
For pain upon his chin
Yet the ruby affixed upon
Hinders an inner grin
Yet the grin fades each day
Subdued by a painted lour
This stigma assigned to him
A burden every hour
Time passes without fail
Each and every day
Sullen growing frail
Lips seeking a raise
Forever sad to all who see
His face painted true
His soul weeps for clarity
And for skies of blue
Yet rain to him a blessing is
In so many ways
A mope for darkened clouds
Or for dismal days
Perhaps a rain could purify
And wash the cosmetic heart
Cleanse the soul and the lie
Provide a brand new start
For now the clown hides in the fog
As to not be seen
For only the sad shall embrace the bog
The artist the clown and me
