Spin

With nowhere to run and nowhere to hide

I wonder when I’ll get off this ride

Round and round, my merry-go-round

Spins quietly, without a sound

Figures and shapes begin to blur

Morphing and blending as they transfer

Faces among them, staring at me

One of them holding a skeleton key

As I tilt my head to catch the stars

My fingers clutch the metal bars

Gazing at me with a sense of hope

They hand to me a piece of rope

Clutching it tight, I grab ahold;

This is my chance to escape the cold

The merry-go-round starts to slow

As I leave behind my vertigo

    Nicely crafted rhyming poetry. Not the prose the intellectuals call poetry. Walt Reid

        Lucy Rebecca, you are obviously a veteran in this field and I find it inexplicable that you were the only one to write me a comment on a very contentious subject. Ai suggestions lead to further financial outlay and I’m only just above solvent. Have you any suggestions. My techno and navigation nous is also of a pretty low order. Walt Reid
