Man will do anything
To give
His life
Meaning
And
Purpose
Anything
Like
Waking
At four o'clock
In the morning
And going about
Doing things
Like making phone calls
Across time zones
Working out
Meeting people
Debating
Pontificating
About nothing
Incessantly moving
Spinning wheels
Doing
Everything
And
Nothing
At the same time
Running all over
Yet
Going nowhere
But in circles
This is a grave mistake
That man makes
Most all of his life
Thinking that it is him who makes
Meaning out of a life
That is not even his
Nor does he ever give
The chance to live
~ A Grave Mistake ~
