Carousel

CAROUSEL carousel this familiar tune sounds so weird merry go round? no! this thing off by itself carousel every full time round this odd face carousel choo choo whistles frightening dissonance carousel off by itself timeless riders carousel out of time distant coaster rumbles carousel different time different place

Carousels do often seem to be apart from other hair rising amusements, Daver. A reflective piece...where one can allow their thoughts to turn around and around.:) Best wishes, Love, Mikki

Daver, I kept thinking of "Stop the World, I Want to Get Off." Life can be such a scary ride sometimes, and I like the mystery of how this carousell started by itself. Probably it was in your memory. Very nicely done, my friend. (I can hear that distant thunder rumbling.) Well done! Love, Carolyn

There is something malevolent about a carousel. Kids feel it, adults too. daver
