Le Carnival in New Hampshire
a Ferris Wheel lighted with LEDs
April in a parking lot
50 degrees darkens to 40 evening mist
thick cables on the wet blacktop
lights rotating through puddles again
rusty dents on the rides and
crowd control fence
carny life with cigarettes and beer
nutrition after 10 PM
hand-washed socks and broken heels
what matters next
3, 4, even 5 days raining
customers don’t go where we’ve been and
don’t rain like this.
