The Fool

Written by C Hues

There are those that take their time
Calm, collected, cool
Simple, silent as a mime
You know them as The Fool

They stay away, averting eyes
Their dirty, dusty glasses
But it’s a trick—the true surprise
That’s how they mock the masses

For when it’s dark, they spring to life
And discard the façade
They save the day and stop the strife
The heroes we call “weird” and “odd”
