around and around and around
it moves with a sound like a
squishy rocking chair in which
old people like to sit, rocking
their lives away in the hopes
of forgetting the life just lived,
and in my lap you lay like a
Sphinx surveying all that has
been forgotten too by past
generations, who know not
why they must weep today
for that which goes nowhere.
