{POEM} The Gears, They Turn

The gears, they turn
And they churn,
Keep turning out
More folks asleep,
Angry,
Nowhere to direct their fear

And so the cycle continues,
Fear in, anger out,
Until someone sees the light,
Their own light,
Shining in in the dim recess of the mind,
A glimpse into the eternal soul

And then comes the shift,
The lift,
Light in, joy out

And the gears, they turn,
Churning out folks awake,
Ready to take
Steps to be the shift,
Steps to lift up
Others to the light
