Once The Circle Breaks Out
Do we wait for tomorrow,
as we wait for today
Do we see a connection,
false wishes to pray
Do we draw from the past,
as the circle is spun
Trapped inside or out,
is it then Zero-Sum
Can the memories forgotten,
revisit again
Do the feelings held back,
turn to poison and blame
Is our freedom beyond
our ability to reach
Are we the one student,
we've forgotten to teach
Is finality connected,
or separate from
Those things we hold onto,
and still try to run
Is that voice we hear calling,
from within or without
Are they really the same,
-once the circle breaks out
