  1. Roller derby. Roller blades. Roller coaster. This is the one word I have no idea about. Bleh.

  2. she had rollers in her hair.
    her lips were red with blood,
    blood-stained teeth from gnawing
    nervousness and tears filled her eyes
    as she watched his red truck roll
    down the drive way. leaving
    tread-marks across her heart.

  3. we glide along so smoothly, it’s almost as if we’re not moving at all. you’re by my side, hair flowing out behind you so long anad dark and i think god it’s like ink, i could just run my fingers through it so smoothly, and you turn to me and smile and coast onward, roller, you

  5. 1roller = Recursive Operation Launching Leverage Entropomatically Rushing

  6. On her roller skates, she sped by everyone, hurtling through the streets faster than air. She continued to skate past the old houses she had lived near as a child, picking up speed until they became a mere blur in her mind.

  7. I love the fresh bouncy warm smell of your hair falling to your shoulders after taking out your rollers; like poking the edges of your baking cookies to see if they’re done.

  8. roller skates are quite interesting contraptions dont you think? the have four wheels that support the skater and they do not tremble or sway when rolling on them. their movements are just as predictable as unpredictable.

  9. I hate the roller rink. The man with long hair pulled the little boy’s short hair. His hair was long enough to fit fifty rollers. He worked at the roller rink. What a life. What a LIFE.

  10. Roller, my way-lay to what’s down the hill. Filling me with anticipation, feeling the need to see you. Sheath that blade, touching the skin on top you vein. One stroke and love will surrender. Feel the pulse.

  11. Rollerskating will always remind me of pre-adolescent days, spent whining about a boy and complaining about my parents!

  12. Our first date he took me roller skating. I remember how we crawled along the floor, because I’d never gone skating before. He was so patient with me, and when I stumbled he used the excuse to grab onto my hand and never let go.
    I just wish I loved him.

  13. I ran the lint roller down his jacket. It felt so normal, so domestic, as if we had spent our whole lives living together. I watched the little bits of fibers and dust protest as the sticky roll swept them away. Sometimes it was good to get swept away.

  14. I have been wanting a pair of roller skates for a while now. It’ll be good exercise, and I think it’d be easier to move than running. I saw a roller rink the other day, and I wished I could have gone inside because I have never been to one. I think those are retro, and I picture it to be old timey.

  15. I once put rollers in my hair, but now my life is just rolling. Rolling away, away from my safe keeping away, rolling, in the distance. Rollers to put in you hair the pink ones, that cost a dollar, but your life rolling out from under you like a persian rug. Well, you can’t help that.

  17. I used to think roller coasters were fun, I would hop on, the stress would build up, the anxiety would build up, up up up I’d go… then down I’d go quickly and it’d all go away, I’d feel better. Life isn’t a roller coaster.

  18. roller derby
    roller ball
    wheels on the cement
    girls in fishnets with bruises
    on their thighs
    no apologies for the punch
    they might throw
    or the kick right at your face
    all’s fair in love and war
    but mostly just war

  19. roller. rollercoasters and steamrollers. rolling as a motion, one of a vast set we are capable of. rolling, lolling, body as form and function, but also as art.

  20. It didn’t matter that the driver sat twelve feet off of the ground. It didn’t matter that it was Monday morning and he was hungover. It didn’t matter that he was paying more attention to his coffee than his job. In truth, Dwayne wasn’t very bright and wouldn’t have noticed the body parts poking out of the ground in front of his steam roller even on a good day.

  21. the coaster went up the tracks.
    click. click. click.
    the tension was building. Higher and higher.
    Looking over the top now….

  22. sharp as the edge of a knife
    you’ll never get it by these eyes
    circle underneath, you can try
    but you’d never guess where I hide

  23. The roller went round and round, on this roller was a log. Harry had spent a lot of time chopping this log down. Jack had given his life to ensure the log made it to the roller.

  24. The girl puts on her roller skates for the first time. One block without swerving or tripping, “I feel invincible,” she proclaims…until she reaches a pile of branches on the sidewalk and falls on her bottom. She cries and no one is there to help her up.

  25. Roller ball. roller derbey….
    roll by babe
    stick it to the man
    make her day
    fade away
    stuck up stick in.

  26. There was a roller skate whizzing down the hill, lazily and alone. Why was it there? I pushed myself higher on the swing.

  27. As I watched the roller operator, I saw how hard this person was working. I felt sorry for her.

  28. back and forth
    goes the paint roller
    late night renovation slumber party
    aching arms pushing on
    covering the obnoxious red
    with an inoffensive beige
    back and forth
    back and forth
    was it worth it to let me have my way?
    i didn’t even get to enjoy it
    now we’re moving again

  29. A week ago I was roller blading in an empty subdivision. I approached the hill and I didn’t know how to slow down, I sped up to an enormous speed. I hit a rock and flew a million feet!

  30. A roller can flatten me and grind me into the pavement
    Unless, of course, it’s a roller coaster and it sends me flying, defying gravity.

    Mary
  31. blade, skate, wood, curling roller, derby, wheels, slick, hockey, coaster, steel

  32. The roller goes back and forth, back and forth, shaping the dough into an almost perfectly round shape. What yummy tuna buns! I miss it already.

  33. The life of a rolly polly takes many different directions. Above all it presents the quizzical circumstance of never being truly in sync – anarchy is popular among its legs.

    Natalia
  34. I am so happy.
    I am so happy.
    I am so happy.
    I hope you read this,
    beacause it’s allll your fault.

  35. And oh, her roller-coaster heart had nothing on his roller-coaster mind. They soared; they swooped; they fell like feathers after heartbreak and floated like feathers when it was all over and done with. They were young, flying foot-loose and fancy-free. They were young, and beautiful, and the roller-coaster hearts and roller-coaster minds were no match at all for their roller-coaster love.

  36. My love for you was a rollercoaster:
    Spinning
    Twisting
    Frantic
    Rush of adrenaline.

    And in the end, it came to a jolting stop.

    Eli Williams
  37. I wanted roller skates, but I knew it was unrealistic. Being a hipster is unrealistic. Oh, well, I thought, I’ll have other hipster moments. And it turned out okay: I love my new bike.

  38. Rollers are silly. I see them all the time with their flashy-lights and texture-friendly clothing. Silly children with electronic pacifiers, slowly rotting holes the size of marbles in their brain. Go green my friends… smoke a bowl, don’t roll.

    Stephen Baker
  39. Roller high, aces low, ain’t got a soul left living in the damn place

    Where’s your dealer now?

  40. They were trying to paint the new living room. It shouldn’t have been that hard, really. But one way or another the roller ended up on Julian’s face, and then on Nikolai’s shirt, and basically everywhere but the wall.
