Cater To Your Fears

Have you ever 
Ridden a Ferris Wheel ride? I did...
Having conveniently,
forgotten my fear of heights
Ended up stalled on the very tiptop

I cried my living guts out,
They quickly unloaded me
To the consternation of other riders.

Author notes

A day that is seared into my psyche, and has me trembling at the thought of it even now.

    Oh this is quite a story you have to tell. I don't think I quite like heights either, though perhaps not to this extent.
    Well written and expressed. Thanks for entering.

    I felt this and I didn't look down. To the consternation of the other entries in this contest you will most likely win the gold.


    Love,

      TY

      Amera, your piece "My Tiger" is a masterpiece, that's why it
      has won the trophies that it has, but more than the trophies
      It is just that good to qualify as a masterpiece. Those are very hard to write, but you have one. lol and thanks for this review and encouragement. lol

    Good

    I had the same experience a while ago, just not so extreme. I was scared stiff when I was stopped at the top so that other people could be switched out at the bottom. It wasn't even a very big Ferris Wheel. It was at a city fair. Good write, though. It brought back the memories.
