Like a rat
barreling towards nothing
on an exercise wheel
you are running
in the same place
you started
to run,
still expecting
to end up somewhere else
& surprised
when you fall off
exhausted,
exactly where you started
as if
how hard you try
to get there
is more important
than actual destination.
Well said.
Thanks. Kind of a play on one definition of insanity–when you do the same thing over and over, expecting different results 🙂
