Four Poems

Fancy

          Seaside Heights Amusement Park
              Late October 2012


Let the storm and its punish. Gasps and adders,
knock-coils, the spin, its winds like children running out
of breath, into the beetling rain—let it help us

the corner of the boardwalk and carried with it a coaster
as its captive. How destruction waits on the edge of things.
