World's fair


It is a crazy carnival world, a Twilight Zone of insanity where people pretend to be living their lives.

They:

Wander down the midway with good intentions, doing good deeds and being hoodwinked by carnies dressed as public officials.

Drive around in bumper cars, careening and  bouncing off each other like two negatively charged atoms on a collision course.

Ride roller coasters in stomach dropping circles, leaving their hearts behind.

Filling those stomachs with cotton candy, bitter shake ups and funnel cakes for dessert.

Drowning themselves in freak shows and side shows and other comedies or tragedies.

And ending up in a house of mirrors where nothing looks familiar.
