Absurd Lives

A bitter drop to the cup of joy, LIFE
Mixture of dappled emotions, perhaps 
In adazzle outfits or tattered garbs 
Entangled in esotericism menfolk
Accosted themselves in absurd

Running to victory, hectic world
In deliberate attempt to seize ‘IT ‘
Did he attain? Nothing of the sort
Transcendental existence! 
LIFE mocked mischievously

Advanced age showered wrinkles
Like withered leaves on earth
Hectic world, gone beneath the clouds
Sprawled on green sward
Accosted himself in absurd

What’s Achieved?
LIFE mocked mischievously.

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
