A Poem by Erundur Anwamehtar
O, the dark pendulum swings
naught comes to naught
forward on hope’s deft wings
O, the dark pendulum swings
ought comes to ought
reverse gears, friction sings
nights end, enlightened
forever it brings
reach the chaliced sky
never seize
touch birth, touch earth
be
O, the dark pendulum swings
the arc, the seeker’s relief
O, the dark pendulum swings
