Vanity


from the ABC set my poems

What is life,is it birth or death
Is it the mere flimsy facade of breathing
Or the never forgone act of procreatiing

Trully it is a mystery

Alas i to lie will i not
For it is as thou all effort is nought.
Morning man shall wake.
Night shall he sleep.
Vain is all that he keeps as treasure

All is vain

Alas i yes i do forgo my instinct and travel
The travelers nightmare still remains
Shall we arrive?are we there?
Did we travail?glad that we arrived and not our remains

For the roads is like a well dug grave.
waiting and praying for its owner.
Happily accepting the simmering and crashing tug
Even if in one basket it needs one hug.

What a tragedy
the road is a friendly foe
someone all motorist owe
my debt remains unpaid
untill the day am laid
accidents

alas all is vain !
