Day or night makes no difference
only indifference to the path I walk
passing through both time
and time again long ago
having lost the compass
pointing to providence
escape from here is impossible
dawn to dusk
wrapped in endless loop
resembling a hangman’s noose
only awaiting my acquiescence
how many time’s must I
like Sysyphus put shoulder to stone
toil to push this load up hill
despite my weariness
and it’s weight
only to have it roll back down
when nearly at the top
rock and spirit reach nadir
a rope to hold my tired head
seems welcome

it's meaning well written. i'll remain neutral as far as structure. lol call me wimp!!

It works....

in my opinion. The lack of breaks in the poem helps carry the feeling of no rest or help that the title and the images imply. Sorry to disagree Miss Blackwood!

A nice read

....that I think would benefit by some restructuring and punctuation. It is not the type of free-run ramble that can survive intact without proper pausing.
