Clown

You make me a clown
and I juggle
for your entertainment. 
The downside of being
a performer is that you 
like me more with the stage
makeup on. What if
I dropped the act
and held just this emotion
so tightly that it embodied
into something
other than a rubber ball
bouncing in my stomach?
Would I still be something
to watch or should I expect
the crash of circus tents
to be the end of me?
