WHAT’S THE POINT

What’s the point

of life

as I tread water waiting for minutes

to pass

by into hours into days into weeks

 

Why do I

bother

with hobbies and pastimes and things to do

which mean

nothing to me or anyone else

 

When will it

finish

this temporary journey on earth

laid out

by a higher presence unknown to me

 

How will I know

when it’s time to go,

time to leave this sacred realm?
