I Bet
What am I here for? a speck of flesh in a vast nothingness! What living accomplishes? It doesn't make sense to me.
I find myself on the same road
that I left behind, I thought I left behind
is it a circle, the circle of life
we must die to be reborn
kill to live, live to kill
eat to starve, starve to eat
the shun desire rises again
fulfill!
many pleasures
fulfillment of not having any
bliss is a dream
dreamer! are you?
in my mind in my soul
my body is sold
to the world
the world isn’t fair
fair who cares?
they do, they make up all those things
the god, religion, temple & hope
the false hope
out of fear
they live a lie
the rich are wretched
pour wine for the poor
the fight against time
out of time!
the rules are set
you won’t fall too far from the obvious
I bet

Engulfing Light
I have not been very successful in quieting my mind this evening. I find that as time goes by, I find myself in deeper contemplation, in regards to the purpose of my life. I can say with certainty, that thus far, I have had a life, that with all things considered, has been a well lived one.
