Is like a carousel, and there's a pleasant sensation, and it makes your head spin. So many gaudy animals to choose from. You get used to the dizziness. The music is loud, and there's an onlooking crowd. It's so much fun to go round and round. Stay on too long and you forget how it feels to be on stable ground. These zebras and giraffes. These benches and poles. They do nothing for me anymore. They've turned into hurdles. You can't get anywhere when you're just going in circles.

The ride's gotta end sometime
