    Endless Cycles

    Endless Cycles
    The fair with all it's glory and excitement.
    A sideshow in a drum, a lone rider and cycle.
    Around and Around he goes, hanging vicariously.
    We watch with amazement as he creeps up the wall.
    He keeps from falling we say, Miraculously.
    We sit in awe and wonder.
    As the cycle roars and thunders.
    And when your three bucks have been spent.
    A quiet signal is sent.
    And slowly he begins to ascend.
    Down to the bottom again.
    Foolish as we are, we are excited and amazed.
    The roar of the engines, our minds ablaze.
    We all know how it is accomplished and done.
    But we still want the thrill of the daredevil run.
    Cheap thrill, cheap trick, and three hard earned bucks,
    easily spent.
    Linda R Reed
