State Fair Poetry

Last year, out of sheer boredom, I wrote a series of quatrains commemorating the state fair here in MN.  While there are 3 days left this year for the fair, I have my set fully done THROUGH TODAY.   If you think you're interested, read on!   Open up the gates! Swing open wide the doors! Tomorrow it all starts again. Can you tell me what's in store? #STATEFAIRTIME    They have opened up the gates, And you have stepped inside. If you're trying to lose weight, don't go, Cuz EVERYTHING'S deep-fried! #statefairtime   Wander into the 4-H building To view the arts and crafts You view the winning entries; You gotta wonder "ARE THEY DAFT?" #statefairtime    Roaming on the Midway; it's where the action's at. You gonna pony up the funds to see The "Cherry-colored cat?" #Statefairtime   Looking for excitement? Try the State Fair giant Slide. Here's your gunny-sack, go down-- But protect your BACK SIDE! #Statefairtime   You've eluded the crowds, some how.  You sat down comfortably. Too late you find @BillZucker 's been there; You're out of TO! #statefairtime   Out of the sun, in the grandstand aisles, Your blood still might boil When you find all the vendors Peddling their brands of snake oil! #StateFairTime      Sitting in the grandstand, now. Please ENJOY the show! In just 2 months you may be griping 'bout (GASP! Dare I say it?) SNOW! #Statefairtime   The Space needle beckons at the fair The sky ride does, too You're running out of time,  So what ya gonna do? #Statefairtime   You chose the Space needle ride, of course,  Cuz it won't make you sick.  How appropriate it is: The ride is on a stick! #StateFairtime   Gotta love the Fair!
