Navigation

Posted on by Reena Saxena

I change a little
each time the wheel turns
emerge a new being
but those shadows
continue to haunt
with fluid, unpredictable movement

I learn

how to rotate the wheel
and make it stop
wherever, whenever
I wish
to change perspectives
to project myself
in a languid, golden light

the shadows disappear in the dark

the wheel of time
moves somewhere else
inflicting judgment
but
-My part of the world is safe
My followers salute me

What Do You See #349

  3. This is such a profound take on the prompt.

    The line ‘I learn how to rotate the wheel and make it stop’ is brilliant.

    ‘I learn how to rotate the wheel and make it stop wherever,

    whenever I wish to change perspectives to

    project myself in a languid, golden light.’ Brilliant.
