The Spoke(n) Wheel


Silent harmony radiates.
The well built wheel spins true.
Each spoke tuned; laced; well aligned;
From flange to hoop; all a silvery hue.
The true wheel: beautifully and wonderfully designed.

Each spoke laced and braced;
Keeps wheel and rider in shape.
A fact we cannot escape.
Let’s ride and embrace this grace.

Mounted; skewered to alloy chariot,
True built wheels will liberate;
Hallowed riders testify and celebrate.
The well built wheel spins true.
Ascends, descends, and transcends.

With daily use and elemental abuse,
Spokes are bent, broken, misaligned;
The wheel becomes maligned;
Just a subtle change in design.

But audible disharmony radiates.
Does this strike a chord?
A damaged spoke, contaminates fellow spokes.
If one spoke suffers, all spokes suffer.
Twelve trinities in discord.

Eventually wheel failure; disgrace.
Damaged: all parts(n) parcel. 
Alas poor Judas Iscariot,
Broken spokes and wheels askew,
Lost his line; fell headlong
and burst asunder.

Day in day out,
Attention and maintenance are due;
To spoke(n) rim and Him.

A broken wheel can be mended;
Restored to spin like true nobility.
King of Kings, a true remedy for disunity.
Beloved Chi-Rho, keeps us whole.
Through his grace, we keep the pace.
