 Contemporary poetry by Dan Donlan

OUR FIRST AND LAST DATE



I suffer from vertigo
The tea cup ride makes me sick
Dumbo is a threat to my stomach
I do not do roller coasters
It was a side of the rode carnival
"I want to ride the roller coaster."
"I will wait below for you."
"Man or a mouse?"
Later she would have preferred a mouse.
I survived the roller coaster
There is this thing they call the hammer.
Spins up and down why it is called the hammer
I survived the hammer
The whip is what does me in
You see spinning to the right side of my brain
I get dizzy and nausea's.
Second time around I was going to vomit
At the very apex over the side
Around we went to the bottom and started up
Circulating us perfectly the vomit.
Straight into my dates face.
At the very apex I vomited again
She could not see as it covered her clothing
Took her home--Mom led her to the shower
Washed all her clothing and took her home
She never again answered my calls
I wanted to take her bungee jumping--not!
