Why ??

Why ??

Why! Did God bother us with a stomach,
and the first pair lead us to this path
a path of bother, lies, impurity,
mindless games, political correctness;
to live a arduous life impregnating
this beautiful world with hate, bigotry,
living each of our lives, striving;
to an end goal, meaningful, and in memory
of those who matter and, more who don’t
leaving marks inimitably
and on those we love,
some of it bad, others good and many unintentional
circling that truth we seek
on who we are
and Why ?
this burden we carry on our feet
our souls searching, questioning
our very purpose and organism.



I wrote this today out of irritation and patience fast running out. It was one of those days where you feel a ton of insurmountable odds. It was nuts. A little background here on the 'stomach' line - My sis always used to comment saying that God, its this stomach which is the cause of all the perenial problems of mankind. In a way, she's right. Anyway, the irritation persists but was a good letting off of steam.
