I knew this woman once, and everything always revolved around her. But not like the planets, revolving around the sun; more like chaos revolving around the eye of a tornado.
I'm so literal minded I can only say, like a grade schooler, "the sun" but what I feel is that it makes those revolutions faster and faster. Older people always say that: BECAUSE IT'S TRUE. But we don't want it to stop revolving.
the rusty gears in my head aren't moving or revolving today...
only the obvious comes to mind, the planet revolves around the sun
as a species, perhaps its resources, the basics for survival that are easy to take for granted; once the basics are met our individual worlds revolve around seeking comfort and happiness, many believe that money buys those things and to a degree it does, until a basic level of comfort is achieved...beyond that perhaps a search for deeper meaning and a debate over whether such meaning exists
365 Sonnets is a fantastic blog by a 16-year-old poet named Mike Fan. Sonnets were never so entertaining, and for some of them Mike uses prompts from The One-Minute Writer.
On his blog Railroad Poetry, Enri Zoltz shares the poems he writes every weekday on his 45-minute train commute.

that wasn't very coherent...
The world revolves, but does it evolve. The days get longer, but we will them with less stuff. Every year we come back to where we started.
We just revolve.
