]]> 12 Jun 2007 06:05:32 RomZom One blistering night, when all seemed quiet;
A meteor came crashing and caused a big riot!
To edge closer or not? A question unanswered
as we stumbled through the forest, this way that, we
meandered.

Oh look! The circus is here! The children exclaimed!
And HULABOO-BUBBLE! of the juggling clown fame!

We entered the tent, with hopes and promises
of wonderous activities and sugar pop molasses.

13 green cotton candies, not 4 or 5.
Hung high from the ceiling, swaying here, swaying by.
But what's this? It drips! Red, sticky, warm blood.
A low humming voice whispers, and then a THUD!
