the slow churn of chains
hauling the victim up to the peak
is the only thing my ears
have been able to pick up thus far.

unknowingly reaching for the bar,
i grip tightly, giddy and elated
from pent-up adrenaline.

the peak.
world sit still
for a frightful wisp,
and edge us closer to descent.

there we go!
i'm thrust down the track,
as i am reminded
of how south moods can go sometimes.

life insists
on throwing me into unexpected loops
when i just want an upright cruise.

he's back,
he returns again,
making me consider
what has and hasn't been.

is this a sign of a peaceful stop?
or will he attempt
to throw another loop at me?

who knows his intentions this time round.

i'll gladly await
another thrill ride with you.
maybe i'll get a say
in the coaster design this time.
