karmic wheel

July 13, 2019 by Michael Guerin

another rusted sunset —
and underneath this rolling
wheel churning
day into day
and season into season

when there’s nothing left to do
and nowhere left to run
and old familiar
escapes fall through
which no longer hold a reason

and faced with faded memories
unrolled frame by frame
from its reel
or how the prophet told
that all returns into dust

or like chaff beneath the grinding
wheel or ash no longer fit
for flame and there’s no one
left to blame —
just let it come undone.
