* The Wheel *

*The rest is routine..* Motion, cogs, tick-tock turning, winding up, up, up.. ticking down, down, down.. Back, Forth, day, night, weeks, months, years.. ages, eons, dust, rock, space.. *eternity*.. You are **_ephemerally eternal_** *Ethereal*, even.. **Structured Spontaneity**. *Cosmic Causality*.. Is there some grand design firing photons from pistons that fly past, *ever onward*, ignorant or indifferent of your plight? A slight that you should take lightly.. ..*for who are **you**?*.. Who am **I**? who are **we**, save *words* we deign to don? Yet, We wear these worrisome ways like a fever or a woolen sweater on a sweltering summer evening, **sweating** and *shivering*, huddled paralyzed by fret and fear. Tear off this *affliction* and throw *caution* to the wind. **Today** is your day to stand up and say **_"I will live my life.. and I will live it my way!"_** https://retailernowmag.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/05/Take-a-stand-web-777x437.jpg [src](https://retailernowmag.com/taking-a-stand-for-you-and-your-store/) *This is Part Four, and the conclusion, of a stream of consciousness writing series.
