Desertion
the wind whispers “lonely”
at the roller coaster pier
where happy screams of delight fright
still haunt the atmosphere
the rust moans “empty”
on a deserted Ferris Wheel
where lovers sought the height of night
now only girders squeal
the sky speaks in thunder
above the amusement park
a place where children’s laughs of glee
echo in cold and dark
