not in a good
way though.
she tore my ticket in half.
she turned me inside out.
upside down.
spun me around.
she was a carnival
ride,
the fun house.
the house of horrors.
the freak show.
the lady with the beard
the hunger artist
the lion tamer
i was shot out of a cannon
my head
placed inside an alligator's
mouth
i was slung around
on the roller coaster
dropped from the high
wire.
i was the sad clown
with big shoes
and a bulbous nose.
i was under her tent,
the big tent
cleaning up after the elephants
in her traveling
show.
