Merry-go-round
by esoror/rorose
Mary goes around
The fairground
To find her little brother
Who is always around her
But now is gone.
When she comes to
The merry-go-round
She finds it keeps running
But her brother is there, on the ground,
Motionlessly sleeps in sound.
From now on
Her brother will never open his eyes brown
And Mary will never go around
That fairy fairground.
Circa 1999

之前放到精美區時並沒有時間讀
剛剛讀了 .. @@ 呼 ..
是類似 limericks 的押韻方式
limericks 通常都是小孩子玩的時候那種詼諧的童歌之類的 .. 嗯
而這首詩剛開始看的時候也是以為是類似的
"Merry-go-round" .. "fairground" ..
但是讀了之後 才發現 完全不是這麼一回事!
雖然很令人難過 .. 就好像最後一個 stanza 少掉一行的格式
格式和情節一起描述男孩的死亡 但是 真的蠻有創意的選擇 .. ^^
