Notes About The Poem

Listen to poem:

Life Spins Round

Life spins round the single point
all time taken in the observed
consumed against more than less
or opposite as consequence

is this the drain circled now
or pot of gold to cash against?
both are an end to the means
of damning efforts to redeem

consider outcomes that transpire
by the fruits that are acquired
while the surface is the same
the shell contains the darker stains

by the debris cast about
the drain demands little worth
only that life prepares
to be consumed in karmic sleight.
