In a ring, all in a ring – go
Move in order, in a row
Litter at a point, where you feel
Weight of the task, stop and congeal
Pore with a more fleet pace
The token of work, skilful race.
Twirl and linger, detour your move
Meet a compeer under a roof
Conspires with you a diverse plan
Stick to decree of your plan
Stop at a point or budge about it
Perfect your task, bit by bit.
Hush! The silent verdict move along
Like sleek segmented designs marching ahead
Till your dutiful array forges along
To carry a Leviathan out of its bed
The final sentence your chief shall give
“Dispose or devour it and live”.
As wind fires its fancy around
Slack up impassively, devoid of sound
Summon of adversity may fall on way
If unimpaired, prolong your serving sway
Until the final thrust pounds upon you
Be a chum afore an outer view.
