Wrote thinking of Mr. Emmet Kelly and the song "Funny Little Clown"; aren't we all.

Tears, cascading down
      A sad faced clown
A smile, upside down
      A sad faced clown
So alone, feeling down
      A sad faced clown

Once loved, now cast down
      A sad faced clown
Time stopped, clock run down
        A sad faced clown
I’m done, casket top down
        Gone a sad faced clown
