Learn and repeat


image: Robert and Shana ParkeHarrison


i fold back and turn turn turn
the vision that's burnt burnt burnt
i work and repeat  repeat repeat
the lessons not learnt learnt learnt
the cogs in my life life life 
continue to grind grind grind
and my heavy heart heaves heaves heaves
while the tasks never end end end
as we circle and weave weave weave
keep oiling the steel steel steel
and cranking the wheel wheel wheel
for onward i go go go
for my life's never slow slow slow.

  11. It is funny but we get so comfortable doing the same things over and over, hoping for a different outcome. I like this a lot!
