Quatrain of Down the Slide

What a ride

I've been down the Slide of Life
before, it was fast and
furious; gave
off a hot
seat.

I promised never to do it again,
there was no bewilderment
knowing it stirred
too much
heat.

The Slide of Life doesn't allow
me to deviate from the
path planned, no
surprises
ahead,

If I can hang onto the rails I will
wind up where I ought to be,
on another ride with
more tears to
shed.
