Aw, bless, Harlequin. He doesn't have an easy time of it, and you show that so very well in this wonderful haiku. I wish it had been part of a contest. Ulla:)))

Those unusual clowns and harlequins are a little scary and have been used in films to scare the audience, but when they are sad we always feel sorry for them, much enjoyed, love Dolly x

This work has reached the exceptional level

It is nice to see well-written words give the reader an image all on their own, with wonderful alliteration as the clown's face becomes not so friendly very well done****kahpot

Words paint many pictures. From funny to scary and all place in between. Clowns have always given me a eerie feeling deep in my gut, from Chuckie to Stephen King's IT. Thanks for sharing.

I am a man who normally faces danger with strength. I am also wise enough to recognize when the situation requires to make a swift departure. on encountering these two, my mind will dictate that I do a swift about face and engage in swift movement toward the exit.

I enjoyed this very much Bill. You painted an extremely clear picture of the inner unhappiness of clown. Your 'stammering alliteration' worked very well. Kate xx

It is hot enough to melt the face off of a clown. You poem has the correct syllable count plus some great alliteration. Poor clown I guess he had a sad face painted on to began with and now he's weary and weeping. Where the picture we've come to expect? Nicely done. Leave it to our imagination.

    Thanks, Beth. I felt a picture would be redundant (as well as tough to find).

Not a happy picture you paint with your words, but really interesting. Isn't it amazing how a poet can take a handful of words and turn it into something cool. Thank you for sharing your talent. :)

Bill,
I like your choice of words in this unique poem.
I imagine a smeared face, or someone who has lost faith in life.
Clever use of words.
Good luck
Blessings
Cindy.
