PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

toiling as if tireless

meeting drudgery and calamity

with monumental will.

always forging ahead

but not always full steam

always ever forward.

conjuring momentum

from depths never seen

through all forms of pain.

and never progress.

running ever faster

to stay in place.

and still to toil.  

meeting drudgery and calamity

with monumental will.

to watch everything

you ever knew and loved

disintegrate and die.

to watch destruction

on a grand scale

warnings unheeded.

to watch every effort

washed away to nothing

forever undone.

and still to toil.  

meeting drudgery and calamity

with monumental will.

why?  if dawn never comes.

when i have nothing left.

when oblivion is so effortless.
