A Little Stephen King to Brighten Your Day

Stat Boy is working on creative writing this semester. He has actually been enjoying it, at least I think he is. How could he not when he is allowed to turn in assignments like the following:

The Crazy Creepy Clown

Hideous and unflattering, the powdered face of the creepy clown smirks sinisterly as he runs around the arena with his twisted knife. Children shrink away in pure terror as he comes near, and sigh with relief as he stalks away in his red spotted pants. His bloated stomach hangs out of his sparkly blue shirt and jiggles whenever he moves. The tyrant's blood red hair has bugs and dirt in it, and he has a half shaved beard on his double chin. When booed by the crowd, the poor, sinister clown struts off to his dark lair.

The boy has only been to a circus once. I think he was about two. I guess it made quite an impression on him. Yikes!
