Life is cheap under the Big Top, but Joey never seemed the type of clown you'd see luring puppies into the heart of the forest. As a child, he was neither evil, sociopathic, nor superficially charming. Not at first, at least. Joey's toxicity was slow and deadly, building up like mercury or lead. His evil, once settled, radiated from within; long periods of exposure resulted in total obsession—a subtle manipulation of thought. Once trapped inside the web, you're reliant on that toxic theatre - you needed it.
Clowns were everywhere, on television, in magazines, hiding under the bed. Cumbersome floppy feet creeping about in the woods, huge blood-red smiles hiding cruel intentions. Victims of coulrophobia claimed the supposedly emotionless clown mask spooked them. This is nonsense. Clowns do feel emotion; they feel a prolonged stasis of malevolent HATE.
