up and down
round and about
rollercoaster speed lurching heart-in-the-mouth
reality the whooshing sensation
giddy speed
clarity reality sharp detail in the moment
time suspended
still silence of experience
muffling the blurry busy noise otherness out there
at a different pace
in another place
swings and roundabouts
backwards and forwards
up and down
back and round again
here we go
hang on
smile
scream
hard to relax when holding on for dear life
hard to smile
holding on to
dear
life
