Diamondback Blackout

March 17, 2019

Too tall,

Too scared,

To confident.

Diamondback

Roller coaster

“Enjoy the ride”.

*click, *click, *click

Higher,

And higher

It climbs: to the top

“I see the entire park”

Then

Down.

Screams,

Stomach ache

Black out- nothing

No memory,

No fear,

Just black.
