DARK DREAMSCAPES POETRY CONTEST |
JESTER INFORMATION ▼ A THREAT IN JEST A threat in jest as you may guess Is something not given jest yet Caution or boldness no matter some may jest the mad hatter Smiles, jokes, and what-not Rarely they receive "thanks a lot" Clumsy and awkward and silly too maybe they’re entertaining for you Pranks and jokes make you smile sit and relax for a long while Jester shows his ticks of the trade His costume shouldn’t make you afraid Some jesters may distract you while Others prepare to joke and goof off in style Pranks bring to them a smile but then their low status of position wipes them off again Dark they are not but sometimes that’s forgot swiftly the stories were told and he was caught Because of the tale, a jester jealously empaled the brother of the king so he went to jail A jester in distress and serious trouble Was sentenced to death on the double His friends and colleagues helped him escape later that day a smile planted on each face LINES 24 921 characters, 170 words.
