Feeling Known
A lonely orphan boy sits alone
On his bed, looking down
He crossed his fingers and let out a groan
Thinking about how he wanted to be a clown
Wanting to do all the silly antics
Eliciting laughter and joy from everyone
Giving people some good kicks
Having some good fun
He looked up, smiling at what he thought
Then he stopped smiling
Looked at the boy near him, Scott
Looking upset by what the owner did to punish him, violently crying
The boy got into his bed, hiding himself from being shown
So that he could have a nice dream of being a clown and feeling known
