weightless

standing in the center of the mary go round

everything moves so fast

my eyes can't keep up

so I just stare ahead and watch the jade colored trees seep into the sunsetting sky

amazed by this effect

my stomach is suspended and my breath short

my mind grasping for something steady

but I decide to let go, close my eyes, and enjoy the suspense

I'm pretty used to enjoying being on the edge and holding on for dear life as I exist in the spin

but in this moment I am stepping back and observing the spin

weightless...
