An Ode to Wallace Stevens

A work in the style of Stevens

The world goes round

Just as a carousel does

Making moments mass

With ups and downs

The colorful ponies

Each one unique

Each moving in unison

With the music

Slowly they start to slow

Sadly realizing the end is near

They stop for a moment

To have an exchange of places.
