jester’s throne
a limerick about a twisted fate
sitting down in a plight
he pondered on the ridiculousness of life in the bright
suit, everything went through the roof
while he cheated, someone else dared to break the same rule, collected a foolproof
now he collects rent from the perspective of a rogue landlord owning crooked walls' height

Tony couldn’t sit still, crossing and uncrossing his legs, trying to calm his trembling hands as Clara stood at the office window deep in thought. The airline ticket in his shirt pocket moved to the beat of his heart¬– each beat bringing back the nightmare causing memories of the words he’d spoken over ten years ago. Thanks to Clara he’d finally gained the courage to buy that ticket.
