I saw the circus today

I didn't go to the circus today,
It came to me.
I was just simply walking along
When it bounced out from behind a tree.

Running along, backwards,
it clapped and jumped
then spun things round on its head

a backward flip
and through a hoop
a routine perfectly played

But this was a circus
that I didn't like
In fact it just felt so wrong

Because this little circus
was really a boy
dancing to a man made song.

Little children of 7 or 8
should never be
forced to perform.
