b-t-c on April 1st
Bluffo the clown has this day
but he’s more than an April fool
attacking the daughter of the judge actively presiding over the case
where he’s accused of criminal behavior
although attack has always been
both offense and defense for him
perhaps not understanding that others
have power to attack as well
if that judge is constrained by duty
to neutrality, not everyone else may be
—poor Bluffo
