In Line
In Line
David J Walker
The line that seems so long
And moves so slow
Both ebb and flow
Awaiting our inevitable return
on that scary carnival ride
In line
One step at a time
In full view
We laugh
And make fun
Of what is to come
Warnings posted
The dangers noted
Predictions made
Of whom is saved and
Who scoffs
at that first long drop
Some dream
Some scream
But all depart
At the appointed time
The line is not
so long
Nor moves so slow
Everyone departs but
But no one will know
When
Or if we will return again
