Dream

Have you ever felt defeated? 

Aimless in a purposeful world?

What the hell are we doing here? 

Into this life we are hurled...

Is karma real? Is there really a god?

It is all just a sham? A fake? A fraud? 

There are kings and beggars... Prisoners and saints...

But we all leave someday this world's restraints...

Everyday I paddle up this fecal stream...

I'm always hoping; wishing, this was all a dream...
