Thoughts on Life, through Rides, Games & Lights.
You Can Coast in Circles on Someone Else's Ride,
Going Round N' Round, Losing Your Pride.
Till One Day It Ruptures
& With The Ground You Collide.

Or Alternate Choice,
Create Your Own Noise
And Earn For Yourself, The Very Best Toys.
Choose The Track, For Which You Won't Look Back,
Forcing Those Full of Jealousy To Rise & React.

On Which Day, You'll Comprehend Things Right,
And The Loitering Surpassed Will Stoop & Sigh.
For You Have Made It, It's Your Very Own,
Unlike The Others Who Molded A Clone.

Take a Few Shots, Toss a Few Balls
Stand On Your Feet & See How It Falls.
Available Are Tickets To Windows & More,
But Not For The View or To Open a Door,
The Visionary Imagines, For Others To Adore.

Missed Swings & Failures Dropping You Down,
Till Sooner or Later You're Planking The Ground.
You'll Peer In The Darkness, At Dark Starry Skies,
Drowning In Sorrow With Internal Cries.
And All Of a Sudden Shocked & Appalled,
A Decision is Pondered.. Can You Rise With The Tall?
All Extremities Trembling, Hands Slipping To Hold,
A Swing & a HIT!
To The Floor of The Bold.

Now Peer Down Low & All Around,
Pure Across The Entire Town.
And Understand The Reward Behind,
Living The Dream.. Without Thoughts To Rewind.

Life As It Seems, Is Just So Unfair
Floating Around Within Obnoxious Air.
Now Take a Peek At Some Modern Statistics
Crumble The Cookie, It's Just CARNIVAL-istics.
