The Vicious Circle.

And so it goes on and on and------

THE VICIOUS CIRCLE.

To escape the days battles

I welcome night's embrace,

lose myself in darness

all problems to erase.

Let darness banish conflict

bring me thoughts sublime,

bring my world to rest

still the hand of time.

Alas,   darkness hides the clock

not the pendulum in my mind,

anguish, swing back and forth

measuring relentless time.

Until,   at last!

night, fleeing dawns advance

surrenders to the light;

consciousness grasps the moment,

another day, another fight.
