The Hand turns the Handle
the Handle turns the Gear
the Gear turns the Other Gear
the Other Gear turns the Axle
the Axle turns the wheel
the Wheel turns the Track.
And around and around They go.
But Where, you may ask,
are They going? The Answer-
i really don't know.

The author's comments:
This poem was originally inspired by s doodle of a strange machine. Through the power of capitalization, it became a statement about society.
