Funnel cakes are put aside
Postpone that visit to the waterslide
The bumper cars? Not today
Ferris wheel? Please, no way!
A long line gathers of young and old
Forming a brigade of the brave and the bold
Seeking the ultimate, the ride that fulfills
The “ooh's”, the “ah’s”, the thrills, the chills
Gravity defiant - friction, force, and fear reliant
Magnetic, kinetic - truly energetic
Wildly extreme, reigns supreme
Stomach guillotine, faces green
Charmed and lured, it’s a summer’s routine
Being caught in the jaws of this serpentine
Scream machine!
