The spinning illness

i shiver naked
not from fever
from a deep palsy
despite my strength
I feel crippled
solid and rotten within

my heart was broke
but i am not broken
only confused in mind
seeing nothing outside
nor understanding itself
and least of all you

i have power over
everything around me
but i have no balance
I see but am too sensitive
i feel all the movement
but no power over you

the earth spins dizzy
moving in a circle
the circle is but a piece
of a larger circle
which in turn circles itself
casting my wits abroad

my life doesn't spin anymore
at least what is left
the past is gone
to that place
when our spinning tops
both spun together
