Of course your parents take your hand 🤚 and you shake because you don’t understand why you have to go…….it’s so tall and you’re so small and it goes round and round

As you go and as you grow you visit those times again….. they didn’t know the were giving you a preview of what was to come

a life of ups and downs….. round and round and you try to remember not to eat the cotton candy

but you forget and occasionally you throw up on the people in the chair below you

you apologize and they survive but you know they don’t believe you

so you wander around the side shows and marvel at the freaks….. as you leave a thought comes to mind….” You may have more in common than you think “

going home you brush you teeth and glancing at the mirror you smile and spit in the sink

drain your bladder and wash you face….pray before you go to sleep

“ Dear God I know that I am no better than the carnies…. the vendors or the freaks….. the Circus never leaves town thanks for looking after me….”
