Just a peek
Ecclesiastes 3:15
15 Whatever exists now has already been, and whatever will be has already been;
for God will seek to do again what has occurred in the past.
Peeking in the past
What a comfort, what a life ... where is appreciation?
Why so much unhappiness? Why this self-induction?
Searching blessings in just deserve... seeking deep in darkness
It is amazing and self-imposed this constant self-destruction
Dreams are built on yesterdays ... hope forgets tomorrow
Today a fading entity in search of an illusion
All appears a story ... the things we should have learned
Repeating history in our constant state of confusion?
Prosperity gained and values lost on a landscape framed by fear
Abstaining from the plenty that thro lack of will we shove aside
Self-preservation now at any cost in fake mortal squeeze
Living in a frenzy that seems to offer a free ride
Joined in a dungeon by the faceless many
All their discarded entities gathered in a stream
Running towards a swelling pond of accumulated waste
that now reaches up to the neck muffling final screams
Depravity now fully exposed ... manure a welcome sight
How deep can one sink in this bottomless pit?
No struggles here are seen ... gone the will to fight
Unless it is with others who seem to get the best of it
