b-t-c up in the air
you’d think the circus
would be afraid to have an airport
named for the clown who owns
the title of leader of the most
failed businesses
but Bluffo the clown’s nomenclature
is proposed as the new name for a busy
prosperous international facility
Bluffo has crashed so many times
how can we hope for a ‘soft landing’?
our b-t-c does not even merit
having a field named after him
—poor Bluffo
