Christmas 1958
The Funland
came to town
bringing death
with its bright lights
A girl of 9
gone to all
crushed by a stone
no kiddie rides
no snowcones
for her
Innocence lost
to all in town
for when the Funland passed
blood was still on their ground
For April, I am challenging myself to both #NaPoWriMo but also the #AtoZChallenge. This one definitely feels pretty weak. I originally thought I would make a reprise of the tune “Toyland” but then I recalled this true crime.
This is my personal blog about being present and in the moment and working to keep this fire within me burning.
