"Whirligig"


“Whirligig”

cji
6/1/17

Chasing one’s tail
almost catching often
as in research endless
circling indifferent
building lie upon lie
deeper and deeper
into the ground tread
round and round
as oxen tethered
knowing only to tread
whirligig as child’s
without innocence
caught in their snare
chasing one’s tail!
