Circus
Always the clown, never the ringmaster!
Behind his smile, the clown cried.
The lion obeyed, until it didn't.
Lion tamer? Lion's dinner, more like!
Tightrope snapped. Parents plumetted. Sidekick found.
Rings of fire, lure me in.
It came, then vanished into sawdust.
Couldn't train animals; trained humans instead.
Slight of hand. Suspend belief. Magical.

I'm assuming "crown" should read "clown".
