Circus Amok - Homeland Security

Today, in Tompkins Square Maya, Victor, Bobbie & Grandpa watched the best political satire of these times!
Giorgio Bushwhack, the freedom fries, Officer Friendly Fire were all interspersed with juggling,
acrobats and clowns and an excellent klezmer music band. A bearded woman was the
ringmaster, there were mohawks and a lot of cross dressing - reminded me of the Cockettes -
just as funny only rated G. The crowd went wild and United for Peace was getting a lot of
attention and new members. I'll go again at 5 with my video camera. Georgio Bushwhack was a
lion tamer (so terrible, that when he was born they had to slap his mother)who in the end loses
his head in a lion's mouth. The troop then comes out to celebrate with such signs as :
"SECURITY" "FOOD" "SHELTER" "GOOD ART" . Some hung up signs listed: SECURITY, SEQUINS,
GOOD SHOES, NO KILLER COPS, ARHUNDATI ROY and B61 BUS(?)
They'll perform in parks in NYC all June - look for them! (circusamok.org)
