    Cyclical Reformations from the Day After: Carousel

    Carousel

    Created in tandem,
    she posts high
    and I rail down –
    a fixed gallop
    dancing on ferry ground.

    Her mane gleans of tulip,
    and her masked face
    without lines and enameled
    remains aside my constant pace.

    Each poled at the center,
    elevated from platform brown
    yet open to stars and wind
    enveloped with sweet and joyous sounds.

    Still (to each) we are boundless,
    though children young and old
    straddle us for fun and frolic
    imagining their lives so told.

    The mechanics of our union,
    concealed with painted facade,
    all controlled by a single lever
    starting and stopping –
    a mortal collage.

    Our love seems then like a ticket;
    presented for collection,
    sometimes torn when redeemed,
    only then embarking
    for that already seen.

    And often I site at our far side,
    undetectable with her single glare,
    that overalled hand of fate
    operating expressionless –
    as one does stare.

    So wonder I must,
    as tent tops fold and wheels roll,
    how to keep her with me
    when our days to turn are sold.
