Crumbles

He took the name Crumbles for his clown act,
because his legs were always going out from
under him, and he had to work that into the routine somehow.
He was magnificent and pathetic at the same time…
not just funny…he was a true clown. He could crumble
eighty six different ways. He loved people, but
he couldn’t stand to be around them because of
their stupidity and suffering…so crying was also a large part
of his act. He never figured out why the more he
cried, the more the audience laughed, but he didn’t
care anymore….all he knew was that it was working for him.
