Turning the Wheel

by Steve Posch, copyright 2001 - Minneapolis

Witches' work is turning the wheel,
And round the wheel doth turn.

Time wheels, the world wheels,
Time and space
Embrace in the wheeling circle,
And dance of the wheel.

The only constant is constant change:
The nature of a wheel is to turn.
Witches' work is turning the wheel:
To divine the course of change
And to aid it. To add her will
To the will of the wheel:
For the witch is the agent of change.

And witches' work is turning the wheel,
And round the wheel doth turn.
