Another Clue

Still searching, are we? Look, I'll tell you straight:
There is no plot, no tangled web, no scoop.
You're simply wasting time. Jump through this hoop?
Sure, if you want to. It won't help. It's fate
or chance, or what you will, but at this rate
you'll fabricate conspiracies that loop
and tangle, cook a thick spaghetti soup
that's indigestible. It's not too late
to change direction (though in point of fact,
you're chasing your own tail at present, turning
in circles all the time) so take time by
the tail, turn all your circles, get your act
on stage, and something cooking, moving, burning.
Do something with your life before you die.
