Spiral Fix.

In precious little circles
their thoughts run races.
Float in the water, azure and still
drowning in downsize
None finish first.


No stars get them out of this hold
slow down, just two are left
I see your smile shine, red in the silence
It's laughing

one of us is next. 

They hid the smiles off the sideways
made it my fortune to watch it all happen
I'd be sure we're still going nowhere.
They retch an apology for necessity
but my blood still swims inside.

When all is done and said
I think, spirals down
it all spirals down the brain

into their little circles. 

So I'll find the balance in between.
