there is no truth today

There is no truth today
The circus runs round and round
The monkeys jumping from tree to tree
Listening to the calling
The zookeeper walking by

The roar in the cage
The tigers and lions face off
Trying to stare each other down
It is the circus
Running them around

The spectators congregate
Listening to the roaring
High hope for good entertainment
Correct, correct, correct
The audience applause

Then the curtains fall
The spectators roar with disapproval
Something the circus doesn’t want to tell
The spectators feel cheated
Shouting and banging chairs
Throwing empty plastic bottles

The clowns come
Cracking jokes light spot on
The crowds pacify
Yet thinking what is going on

The circus goes round and round
Cracking whips the animals roar
The monkeys jump here and there
The zookeeper bows and disappears
In the tent he makes his moves
Arranging his props and his traps
Then all disappear into the darkness
Underground tunnel…………

The audience clap
Then the silence fools them
Only the spot lights shine
It is magic
Written on the ground!
