The Prayer Wheel

Like your breath

the prayer wheel goes 

round and round

and round,

Dervish dances 

with ecstatic emptiness

round and round.

Particles , forms

the suns,the moons

the oceans

hopes 

hopelessness

joys and tears,

go round and round

tied centrifugally

as the slender twig tied to the

ancient monk. 

No beginning , No end

Only going round, Going round 

Like the prayer wheel.
