In The Beginning

In the
beginning.
The
beginning 
of what?
Existence,
why?
Personal
existence.
Now what?
Point.
Is there
a point?
Purpose?
Look up.
Look 
around.
Hit the
ground 
running.
Years to
learn.
Integrate.
Never
stop.
No time.
Conveyer
moving.
One end
to the
next.
Ultimately 
dropping 
off.
Tossed
into the
deep end.
Back to
where it
began.
The
beginning.
Oblivion.
What was
accomplished?
What was
the point?
Religions,
philosophy 
debates.
Theory’s 
abound.
Too late,
already 
gone.
