Round and Round

 

Round and round go I,

Caught in the management-fueled whirlpool.

Back and forth go I,

Old ground, new ground, same ground.

 

Round and round go we,

Circles ever decreasing, tighter and tighter.

Back and forth go we,

Here and there, back again.

 

Round and round go you,

Trapped, and tripped, and troubled.

Back and forth go you,

Hither, thither, everywhere.

 

Round and round go I,

Questions seldom answered, answers never sane.

Back and forth go I,

Day after day, life after life.
