Newton’s Cradle
Swinging to and fro
Undecided on which way to go
Pacing
Erasing every possibility of moving forward
Stuck rocking
Swaying
In place
Rythmically,
Held together by a metal brace
Evolution
Misplaced
Free motion
Contained;
Forever stuck in place
An infinite reminder
Of the possibility of motion
The inkling of knowing
But the doom of repetition
Contained
Counting the moments
Until…
