Amusement Parks, Now in Adulthood
Poem (audio)
“They’re not a hard pass.
I don’t cancel them out completely.
Gladly I’ll pass through the gates
and turnstile of an amusement park…
Find me riding the Ferris Wheel,
the Merry-Go-Round, solo swing ride,
maybe a flume log or water slide
or kinda-fast medium coaster.
And if there’s a carnival section,
I am all about arcade skeeball
or a simple win-a-prize toss game.”
