The wheels waited for the lever to turn
as it did so, the chain of parts moved the marble around
levers rotating cogs, while cogs turned wheels
lifting the marbles onto a ramp and
launching them at speed around the run
occasionally bouncing into the odd gear or spring to
keep the speed of the run safe for the marble
as it travelled round the structure
like a kid on the big dipper
rolling round the ramps till it ended
back where it began
ready for its ascent
to begin another run
