Joseph May Poet Rhyme

Blurred Truths

Chasing chaos in ego's flight
 Finding only stress and strife
 With no peace of mind in sight
 Cluttered thoughts, confusion is rife

 Seeking answers that can't be found
 Asking wrong questions all the time
 Truth is blurring all around
 Lost is its meaning sublime

 Grasping at wonders from the sky
 Disconnected from chapter and verse
 Flawed notions have wings to fly
 And things seem to be getting worse
