What goes around
comes around
life more
Tilt-A-Whirl than
Merry-go-Round

Symmetry, overrated
repetition needs
expected spontaneity no
matter how it goes down

up…?

Nobody waits in line
just anticipating the thrill
of getting strapped in
and staying grounded

save the poetically
unenlightened dreamer
on the rumbling
quarter-a-ride,
in-front-of-the
grocery-store horse

– Mark Lucker
