Ode to Futility


Cognition exhaustion
Egregious progression
Promise of promotion
Denied recognition

Reward is revolute
No matter how astute
You are to prosecute
Helot and destitute

No one to mediate
No one to liberate
No savior from this fate
Cannot dissociate

Kismet is against you
To be honest and true
Regardless of how rue
No matter what you do

Nature is frivolous
Don’t be erroneous
It can be devious
Folly is contagious

Victory is hollow
Your pride you will swallow
With force cannot follow
A better tomorrow

No reason to atone
For vagary alone
For history has shown
Your mind is not your own

Its only fantasy
To taste efficacy
It is felicity
That leads to ecstasy

In life you masquerade
Attempting to evade
The future that was made
In the absence of aid

Let me to clarify
Don’t want to mystify
No one can sanctify
Nothing can rectify

Futility is one
That will not be undone
Nowhere under the sun
No place to hide or run
