Sense Sonnet - Chiller

 Blue Period

High in the circus tent of blue

The blue suited acrobat waved

To the crowd below, then did do

The act for which the crowds all raved.

The walking, dancing, jumping on

The wire, with cart wheels, somersaults,

And other body flips upon

Which could not allow any faults.

But today a very blue mood

Inside the acrobat did dwell,

On concentration did intrude,

And today the acrobat fell.

The acrobat struck the ground dead,

The blue suit all blood stained in red.
