Artificial Freefall

A special moment
In an ordinary day
In an extra ordinary life
Can be different for some
Like an exhilarating fairground ride
An artificial thrill
On irrational turbulent sea
Starring hypnotically
In anticipation
As the wheels turn
Taking every one higher
Every one silent
Sitting in their artificial fear
Knowing they are safe
Thinking they are brave
Testing fate
On a ride in an artificial life
Oppressed taciturn mood
Premature jubilation
At the build in deceit
Sitting on the crest
As the ride seems to hesitates
Precautionary as the chain disengages
There is nothing left but freefall
Insouciance manner every one sits
As the ride let’s go
Artificial thrill
In an ordinary life
Exhilarating fairground ride
On an irrational turbulent sea
In an artificial destiny
Synthetic happiness simulated
In mock silence
Thinking it was intoxicating
Jubilation as everyone exits
Precautionary triumph rains
Miraculous artificial fear
For some the truth wanes
Freefall in an ordinary day
In an extra ordinary life
Laughing at fate
Exhilarating tease
