THE CARNIVAL--PROMPT 7



The girls won't tag me
This is not pretty
I suffer from vertigo
First date--she liked me!
Let's just drive along the lake
"Heah, what's that?"
A roadside Carnivel
"You can ride I don't do rides."
"You want her to think your not a man?"
It has nothing to do with manhood.
"OK, I can do the Ferris wheel."
She was pretty starlit night
We held hands it was a good date
"Look at that it is called the Hammer."
New neu no--but I survived the Hammer
This thing goes up and whirls around
It was at the very top I vomited
What goes up comes down
We came down so did the vomit
It was not a perfect date
We took her to my house the closest
Mom let her shower and washed her clothes
Bless her heart we dated again
She was lead singer in her own band
I went away to college she married the drummer
I don't do carnivals nor would I be a jet Pilot
I got sick on the teacup ride in Disneyland
The carnival Prompt 7
I tag whoever might read this
