THE CIRCUS IS CHEAPER WHEN IT RAINS
I've
taken the same ride too many times. I could fall asleep in the
loop. I know the clowns wipe the fake, makeup smiles off their
faces once the show is done. I know the lions sleep in cages at
night. I know the tightrope walkers have blisters on their
feet. I know the ringmaster doesn't believe in what he
yells to the crowd anymore. I know the strongman isn't as
strong as he once was. I know the candy floss has always been
just sugar and air. You are the only reason I come back here
every night.
