Feet at the State Fair

State Fair Elegy:
Heading north on Nelson Street
kneecap to kneecap with strangers.
Bathed in their corndog breath
your eyes glazed and twitching
seeking something stationary and calm -
look up to the sky ride. Pods of glass
in primary colors glide like geese
going south for winter.
