Pointless

poem by: John Prophet
Written on Mar 15, 2023 

Pointless.
Sense
of the
ridiculous.
Life,
existence.
Absurd.
What’s
the point?
Allocated
time.
Time
between
oblivions.
Given by
who, what?
What to
do?
Opportunity
to be.
To exist.
What a
concept.
Life.
Wrapped
tight.
Head above
water.
Pushed.
Stress.
To what
end?
Stop to
consider.
Think hard.
One shot.
Sound,
thought
out
decisions.
One go
around.
Slow
down.
Steady
as she
goes.
No point
really,
so have
some fun.
