The Clown-off

At the festival of the burning men,

A clown approached with his friend.

Another clown came, juggling with zeal,

But the first clown didn’t notice: he was blowing a pinwheel!

The second clown approached and proposed a competition:

Thus began the clown-off. What a curious exposition!

The second clown was strong, and blew the other clown away,

But then they sat down together to watch the two men burn away.

The end!
