A BUFFOON’S CRAFT
By Eddie Haworth FRSA
A Buffoon’s craft transcends the ordinary, stretching as vast as a Cathedral's embrace, yet as fleetingly gentle as a Moth's flight.
It is a choreography of calculated chaos, a symphony where each note of subtlety, wit, and surprise is a thread weaving the grand tapestry of human folly.
Each movement carries profound weight; too many pirouettes may send it spiraling into obscurity, and too few may rob it of its thunderous brilliance.
In this delicate balance, the Buffoon channels the duality of existence, the play between light and shadow, silence and laughter and within this eternal dance, the essence of genius resides.
