Summer carnival

Cigarette smoke

Low in the air

Filling lungs along with the smell

Of fried things, that shouldn’t be fried

Screams fill the night, lit up with rides

Riiiiing riiiiing

Little girl gets a bunny the size of her

Fluffy 

Bright blue

The same blue of her eyes

Which light up with joy

Boom

Brightly colored sparks

                Fly

Through the black sky

  • The trail in the sky

    Heat

    Coming down from above

    The sun stands still

    A yellow trail blaze in the sky

    Leading me forward

    Into its light

    Its rays land, dead grass, yellowing brown leaves 

    Dark hair on a head
