Cirque De Lune


naive, gullible, blinded with glare, eyes of wonder,
colors, loud music, crack of lightning, thunder,
amazing performers, exotic creatures, a spell we're under,
acrobats, flying families, fearful clowns, satisfaction without refund,


bright lights, deafening noise, arranged, displayed, amusement
smell of peanuts, candied treats, animal odors, shocked, amazement,
multi rings, too much to absorb, dizzying mind, darting gaze, enchantment,
circles, blazing colors, dancing beasts, galloping herds, dazzling entertainment,

ceremony master playing the crowd, jumping, flying, leaping performers,
freaks, mutants, abilities absurd, contortionists, weird deformers,
players, artists, talents unreal, balancing bodies, parading dance reformers,
bright colored flags, banners, placards, vixen starlets, visual informers,


rushing to my mind, weak and dizzy, old torn nightshirt, sit up in bed,
sweat profuse, anxiety extreme, fear and dementia, confusion, chaos in my head,
loss of balance, motor skills jammed, can't scream or cry, I worry what's ahead,
fully awake, bearings clear, enjoyed Cirque De Lune, now it's the new morning I dread,
