The Clowns

The feeling of general unease as you watch some do as they please the state of things begin to unravel the mind diverse in it's travel The lies and the deceit laying at the doorstep at our feet when will the wake up bell ring when will some hear that ding The fear factor is in the air yet so many do not seem to care the world has turned upside down run by a circus of dressed up clowns.
