wash-rinse-spin

i pivot between
the unknown, and i know not what

life has left me dangling
from my mind

uncertainty mocks
my every foothold

reality teases me
then shrugs off its own beliefs

I am disillusioned by wisdom,
made foolish by every thought

I cling to a arabesque
masquerading as a mystic dance

yet
let me spin on

for somewhere ahead

i hope

a stop sign
will slow this dream down
