Sadness To Work

Sadness to work,
emotion for grease
the unceasing wheels
that turn in massive flow.
Heaving gears of empirical desire.
Rotating towards a new fire.

Sadness to work,
so then away this happy day!
Away to the hills of rain and pain,
the moors of damp suffering,
black as charred history.
In this cold tumulus heart
this bone may point to a new start.
Heavy bronze wheels of desire.
Turning towards a new fire.
