The Carousel

We spin around sanity’s carousel. Take
a ride around and see the whirling sights-
the unicorn bounding towards the lake

as it is chased by an undulating snake,
ready for the upcoming fight-
we spin around sanity’s carousel. Take

a breath and watch as the slithering snake
coils, ready to use his might;
the unicorn bounding towards the lake.

I bob up and down as the sky begins to flake
with the day turning into night,
we spin around sanity’s carousel. Take

note of the reflection the mirrors make,
twisting and contorting the light.
The unicorn bounding towards the lake

slows down finally for his sake,
before the hunter can take her bite.
We spin around sanity’s carousel: take
the unicorn bounding towards the lake.
