The end
Starts a new beginning
And all previous insinuations
Will transcend
In this spiral downward
That will invert
Subvert
Revert
Only to convert
In subtle covert
Back to this
Of which is absurd
From first to last
In a one man race
You can’t get past
The selfish disgrace
Of defeat
At your own hands
So you find
Yourself, caught behind
Yourself, you must rewind
Yourself, but you remind
Yourself
That in this spiral upward
We ascend
You’re always stuck in fast forward
Until now
You’re at the beginning again
Feeling lost and cursed
You don’t want to stick around
With all that you’ve traversed
In this merry go round
That is anything but perverse
But there is a way to win
Just turn around
And go in reverse
As crazy as it sounds
Try going the inverse
Cause you will have found
The end

I thought this was brilliant! lol! loved your 3rd stanza (reversing and all that!)
This was an immensely enjoyable read, not only in the sense that one should learn from the past, but all in itself as well - BRILLIANT!
