Another side-by-side of the RWS-based Morgan-Greer and the Marseilles-based Clown Town decks!
From the Clown Town descriptions:
Six of Batons: The character in this card comes from a truly rich history of shady traveling salesman, from Dolly Parton’s mother-daughter two-timing “Traveling Man” to Flannery O’Connor’s prosthetic-fetishist Bible salesman (“Good Country People”). Some days you’re one of the young lovers running away to forge a new life, some days you’re the mother protecting her home from the swindler, and some days you’re just the little sister laughing at the ruckus. (In this deck, batons are represented by tramp clowns.)
Six of Cups: Like the clowns of the House of God, Pierrot is ready to take a fall, all for the sake of six lovely sirens. Can he swim? No matter, his ideal of love will keep him afloat. (In this deck, cups are represented by whiteface clowns.)
Four of Coins: A good old Texas oil-clown stands content in the middle of his empire, a well-oiled machine! The Four of Coins signifies well-managed resources, as this successful gentleman clearly has. On the other hand, it can mean closedness, blocking off and hoarding resources for oneself. (In this deck, coins are represented by rodeo clowns.)

Why is she like this
(Icarus is fine, she couldn’t care less about him; she just loves being in the cage. Icarus is sitting grumpily on a perch by me.)
