Roller-Coaster

So carefully chosen the augmented thread of clarity inside the birds nest and from out of its maze to find some sense of confusion and teased apart the fibers of all my questions And for this moment I hung my life on its precipitous rope dangling there in the vacuum between the mountain and how the distance in its footstool can end on a rocks cadaverous crunch Am I rolling towards oblivion on yet another high giddy with the feeling of suddenly knowing why AH ! These moments exuberant as they counterbalance when I spilled my guts to tell the world how outraged I really was and with my pennant string jerked at my puppets arms on the hangman's jig I did my little dance and all for just one final gasp Best be this tantrum stamp tearful cry and plead to scratch at the tiny things my unimportant imaginings and consider my attention has gained some kind of diversion with which to be preoccupied tomorrow I’m sure I will feel more satisfied Riding on my own roller-coaster barreling forward towards oblivion on yet another high
