What Of It
to ask was not to see.
questions couldn’t polish the mirror clear.
they fell speck-like, instead,
to feed dunes of cries, loves, and stings,
a desert of dramas and urges
which had incarcerated all life,
back to the very first plankton
warmed by a nipple of sun.
every human died as fully as a beetle,
forgotten in the distance
as the shedding snake of life slithered on.
even gods, who endured a barrage of tests,
crumbled through their statuesque hearts.
it might have been acceptable,
except to hope was not to have.
to know was not to be free.
and justice existed to taunt.
the cruel continuous Gamble,
nothing could compensate for it,
not even joy that had no ceiling,
for fear had no floor.
