My word smithing hobby. Not sophisticated enough to be called poetry. These are train of thought brain flows on tough topics with a rhythm to each post, so let's just call them "words in rhythm" providing a tone, dreams, hopes, and sprinkled with some reality and existential angst. This blog is for the enjoyment of nature, mankind, arts, religions, and the absurd world. A new day.........a new list of incredible ideas

Sisyphus' Whine
absurdly surviving, repeating chore, forcing boulder up side of that hill,
each trip up, straining, forcing, bleeding shoulders and back, amazing skill,
pushing, adjusting stance, fighting that boulder, my mind vacant and still,
arrive at the top, a few seconds of rest, then watch the boulder roll where it will,
walking back down, mind racing, rage, fear, cog in the wheel of infinity still,
destined forever, up and down fate, no destiny, nausea and a terrible chill,
little time, think and wonder, soon at bottom, nothing to hope, my heart can't fulfill,
bottom achieved, mind empty, free, straining, pushing boulder up side of that hill,
