The Carnival
The carnival plays, just like that ever-popular
Band, it plays on…
Should I jump on the jolting roller coaster ride?
Smashing past every turn, thunderously, without caution-
This ride it surrenders to nothing, but itself and bears
No regret, only contentment for life begins and ends
At every corner, small idiosyncrasies, but it nevertheless continues…
Up, down, under, over, upside down, nauseating all the while-
Submerged in endless joy, better to have lived and ruined eh?
Or should I just sit and dream, surrounded by the hula-bulla-
Peaceful, sitting, amidst the chaos, I have learned to detach for better or
Worse.
