Thinking: A Poem

Thinking, thinking
Droning, droning
On and on the wheel spins
The cog races in its circuit

When will the end be?
When quiet is the victor
And laughter turns its face to fools
Dream on; it will come

Questions, questions
Complaints, complaints
Through and through rotten all
The squirrel finds empty acorns

What will the end be?
What ceaseless brightness pervades
And Love outshines the twinkling stars
Dream on; it will come

Raging, raging
Hiding, hiding
By and by a war brews
The blackout beckons confusion

How will the end be?
How the death does breathe its last
And smoke desists for purity
Dream on; it will come
