Quest

poem by: John Prophet
Written on Mar 04, 2023 

Quest.
Meaning.
Searching
for meaning.
Questioning.
Always
questions.
Journey 
of the
cognizant.
Curse
of the
sentient.
Ceaseless 
pursuit.
Looking
for answers.
Chasing
windmills.
Exhausting.
Never
satisfied.
Never
there.
Unpeaceful
in nature.
Unrelenting
cold
ambivalent
cosmos.
A fools
errand,
Sisyphean
crusade.
Undaunted
though
pushing
on.
Seeking
meaning
in a
meaningless
void!
