The bounteous bourgeois bohemian, now a beaten battered bouncer shadowboxing in a shadow-box, was found searching for his betting wife for a better life.



Beryl the Greek bouzouki player strumming a break the plates ballad, of how to break-dance for the crowd on the steps of the Bolshevik ballet.

Paid with rubles to buy a breakfast, butchered bacon and beans boiled to rise with yeast. Baked into a bread for toast on rye in a brass bowl with blueberry jam.



Black coffee served hot on the table without milk, unless a tip arrives in time for too many cooks in their aprons, carving the bacon now lying in bits and pieces.

Hidden in the beans for birds and bees seeing a beautiful sight of beggars passing by, begging their buddies!



Please buy the aprons for us to wash the dishes at Bert's Burger Bar! Beryl's best bet for a better breakfast at dawn.

There in time for Paddy the impostor who stole a bear from the traveling circus while everyone was still asleep with us.



In court the propagation pronouncement, a proposal to prosecute Paddy, failed due to the writing woes of the presiding judge.

Professor Papist Priest dressed in pantaloons with a parasol covering his head to hide away in shame, for catching a parrot-fish to clean and bake with spicy rice.

It must be poached in a pan, with some pears for a pudding to placate the owner of the bear.



Now covered in parsley, preferring to taste the chilly seeds that will create perspiration into a paranoid paradox for partiality to be proclaimed.

Paddy be prosecuted into protective custody, or payment that is payable perpetually to the clowns.



Clowning around on a wire strung between two poles, hammered into the ground through the grass for rolling around to laugh at themselves.



There where Willy Winky went to town to buy some ground, but none could be found, for they said!  No, they thought he was a clown looking for another tent.

This they found in another town with a new clown, who stole Willy’s bright red nose.



Goodness knows why a clown would clown around with a nose that everyone knows, is a trick to make children laugh at the sound of  loud drums.

The flying trapeze artists falling fast, pretending the end of the show is about to happen if you don't go home now.



Now we know why Willy needs the ground to build a house and have a wife with babies, before he tours around next season as a clown.

Hiding his bright red nose, stolen by a jealous clown who thought it was Willy disguised as himself fooling around for a laugh.

 

The flying parrots were anxiously frowning while waiting for a melody to mimic a joyful tune, to crown it all under the stars that are bright and gay.

For Dixie Stompers to play for the Judge and the owner of the bear running away from Paddy, now locked in jail with a clone the cocky-eyed chirpy clown.



Clod-hopping and clopping to the closure in the cloistered town, seeking payment from the cocky clockmaker, with a crooked clipboard.

Counting his cents in a black coded box made from cardboard paper found hidden for safety in the ground



This he clutched in a clutch bag he carried on a coat hanger, with his cocked hat slanting cock-eyed, to confuse the creditors.

Claiming cash or carry in cents for payment for the crocked clocks he sold them.



Constable Clarence with a frown about to collapse in confusion, tried to clown around with the clone to corroborate his statement.



The clock was stolen and not sold as a crock, but a bribe to confuse this review as corruption causing contempt if caught in the court with the judge -



“Catch me if you can, I’m the clown not the clone in touch with the barefaced barristers, bargaining at the bar with Beryl.

I need your bourbon drinking bodybuilder as a bouncer with binoculars to spy on myself.

Blaming me a brainless brainstorming breach of promise bridegroom at your wedding.”
