This is technically a Tanka rather than a Haiku. A Tanka is best known for its five-line, 5/7/5/7/7 syllable count form.

The title of this poem was loosely based on the Dharmachakra which is a Buddhist symbol representing the Dharma, the Buddha's teaching of the path towards enlightenment.

Dharmachakras tend to remind me of clocks, and lately I've written a bit of a short story relating a clock to the steadiness that we find in life... I suppose this poem is supposed to represent how there's a pattern or path that everyone follows in their own individual lives, but unknown to most there's always going to be a period of time when the old must be broken and the new must take control. A tid bit about rebirth...

(Kind of a long explination for such a short poem...)
