This Tall to Ride

We’re on a
Cliff-hanging roller coaster;
Theater-goers, thrust into
The film of apocalyptic doom-
We all will one day
Perish.

The lies, the cries,
Our smiles, and shortcomings-
All summed up,
By a tiny dash,
Etched into
Stone.

And even that
Is not enough for us
To love each other.
