Fair Only Spins on Ferris Wheels
~
Fair only spins on Ferris wheels,
and how can one control one’s deepest churning feverish feels?
Fair only spins on Ferris wheels,
wave of wonder, heart peeking through waxing silent seals?
Fair only spins on Ferris wheels,
life is lost in thought, practicing bended wistful kneels.
Fair only spins on Ferris wheels,
when I picture you in soft shades of teals.
Fair only spins on Ferris wheels,
you seem to unravel me like fragrant orange peels.
Fair only spins on Ferris wheels,
and it’s fine because I can picture us in black and white dreamy vintage reels…

WARNING. I will be tapping into one of your favorite creative tensions: The absurdity of humans worshipping their glowing rectangles as if they were tiny oracles. There’s something deliciously poetic about that contradiction, and it lends itself beautifully to an instructive proviso.
