a reaper roller ride
–more bullet than coaster–
and red-eye
-eady, -eady
. . .
a single in snaking chain
–with each cart a candle
(the first 40 unrealized dreams)
you stand on line
before you can crawl
–they look the other way
. . .
–the height requirement, you know–
for all the dizzying heights to which one rises
–and plummets
(the next 40 falling apart)
the train adds cars
>>
–detaches others–
< <
eternally en route…
