oh my god, I did not think this series of poems could be sadder. the jester's father traded his life for his son's. He made a good bargain but oh what a price. I think it would kill cameron to know what his father had done. the price that he paid so the jester could be. It is, totally unexpected from the previous poems, I mean I did wonder why the father hadn't been mentioned. but I just thought oh a deadbeat. boy was I wrong.
