[RiverNotch]

No problem, Todd.

CARNIVAL OF FEAR

Clowns that need no makeup hide in shadows of the tent
Aerialist Natasha is a black widow femme fatale
Ring Announcer from Brazil was a Nazi criminal
Native Aboriginal imposter was born in Washington DC
Illusionist lost his mind from the fear of reality
Ventriloquist fights his dummy before each daily show
Anaconda Charmer handles other ‘snakes’ for fees
Lion paces back and forth with the tamer in his eyes

Organist, a child molester, tickles ivory keys
Fortune-Telling Gypsies pick the pockets of their shills

Freak wears Siamese-brother under woolen coat lapels
Elephants mistreated are just waiting to turn rogue
Acrobatic Midgets huddle in conspiracy against the tall
Roustabout, an escaped convict, hides waiting for his haul

Scary, but I can't help but feel that a subtler title would be, I dunno, more fun. I like the part about the organist, the midgets, and the faux-aborigine.
