Descending and ascending


Descending and ascending, with

Nothing else to do.

Dazzled by an acrimonious sun,

Sighing for respite. An invigorated

Population returning, like penguins,

Squabbling back to the sea.

 

That said, evolution was a lie!

As hopeless as the resurrection

That destroyed the afterlife for everyone

But god. Whichever way you look at it,

We are still part of a master plan.

 

We go, come back, arrive

With no true knowledge of a destination.

We die in order to live

As if dying  was not by itself  enough

And, in the end, exhausting.

We cannot it seems

Just eat, sleep, fornicate without

Singular purpose.

We demand not one big bang, a discrete

Example of energy formation, but a whole

Lot of little ones, which we confusingly

Call life.
