the ancient symbol of death
yet now it's supposed to be funny.
I guess we have decided to laugh at death.
Above her eyes were exaggerated
square eyebrows far above her real ones.
The laugh lines around one eye were painted black
the other eye had a tear drop. Symbols of laughter
symbols of sadness. The tip of her nose
was a bright red, a round circle.
Her lower lip was painted the same red and down into her chin,
a sort of triangle, a body with outstretched arms.
At he end of those arms on the clowns cheeks were small hearts
that were hands. The nose was the head, the mouth the body.
It was a symbol of service to the world.
Her name was ResuRebo (Resurrection and Reborn)
and I miss her.
