a lifetime spent
tracking the sun
in the sky
and then
turning east again
on pressing of
reset buttons….
weeks, months, years
of keeping a boss happy
to milk benefits -
changing direction again
with the entry
of a new tormentor
days never end…..
Sunflowers

Sunflowers face the East again after sunset, ready for the next cycle. That is the reset button.
