I am not a drop tower thrill ride
That you relish for a few seconds, having waited in line –
Brimming with excitement,
Quivering with anticipation of the adrenaline
About to course your veins.
With ice cream dripping down your wrists
And cotton candy sticking to the sweaty crevices
Around the syrupy, toxic smile that perennially adorns
Your superficially pretty face –
For a short two minutes that
With the help of
Your disproportionate self-centeredness
You effortlessly label "an eternity".
I shall not forget, I will not forgive.
This is not a joke, I am not that thrill ride.
