Complete With A Red Nose

Complete With A Red Nose

Could dare to walkย 
through southern woods
on a warm October's midday,
and still find a stinging chill
disturbingly joking
behind, the maple trees.

Candy promises
sweet talks of nothing
Come take a white gloved hand....
Most kids run screaming
eyes spout insane laughter
with elastic looks snapping back
like a rubber band,

Bloody hair that scared
teased the sides of his head
Such as flames,
speaking in gibberish tongue
painted white pale face
only answers to games.

He cackled hoarse
not with biting teeth
but brandished fangs
only eating ofย meat,

The typical yellow and blue clownsuit
adorned with maroonish fluffy buttons
made to be seen an easy target,
yet a roaming nightmareย 
in the middle of nowhereย 
always catches someone off-guarded.

Crimson smile approachesย 
hand hiddenย 
I assume holding clever,
adrenaline fear leaves me in paralysisย 
I frose.....
He honks twice
(BEEP! BEEP!)
On his big, round, red nose.

Thank you Jeff. That was a major influence along with my love for Stephen King's it(awesome book and movie). My wife has been going crazy with all the clown madness and with Halloween approaching why not kick it off with my own horror. Peace.
