Throttle to the stop

The day gets crappier even hour.
Make me happy, the Queen said.
I'm mumbling, I'm grumbling.
The Jester sheds a tear.

Seeking refuge.
At the watering bung.
Tell everyone.
The Jester is away.

The turnstile turns.
The merry-go-round stands still.
The playground is abandoned.
For the Jester...is not real.

Imagine away!
Imagine away!
The Jester was never here.
