Life Makes No Sense

a stride which flies 
the shoulders wide
wings to glide
a fin to slice

the heart beating alive
and lungs never die 
my brain lives life confused
for what creature am i 

talent is not an attribute
it's not a state of mind 
it's when you carry on through failure
questioning "why" 

in life you do not lose
when you seek to improve 
it makes no bloody sense
and it'll never bloody do

Hello Nick Trim, yes there are times that life does not make sense at all. Have a nice day my friend.
