The Nostalgia of the Infinite by Giorgio de Chirico -10 minute draft

round and round we go on ladders
looking straight ahead, feeling lopsided
believing this lack of synchronicity is ours to shoulder 
we meet a fool, listen to their perspective 
lengthen our steps to go nowhere
each pre-determined vantage point is lacking
we'll never know more with a 360 on slow reveal
four sides, five flags - take the clues
drive yourself insane
compare yourself to the fool
instead, have you ever thought of -
dropping to the ground and walking away?
a surface and it's gravity 
of all the things to be mesmerised by
we should flip it
turn a tower into a lens
turn a lens into a platform
jump free, see more 
don't stare or stay longer than necessary
