Poetry: Meaning of life

by Stephen Carney

Created on: March 03, 2009

To revel in the mind is a dance that lives without want or need. It is a waltz of freedom, a spinning warp of the loss of care, of restriction, and the heroism of liberation. What is the need of grasping? What is the desire of interaction and investment in the other? What makes this desire impending and lustful for attention and control? Is it the desperate craving for significance? The significance we desire only finds it value in the acceptance of the assumed professional, and experienced, opinion of our fellow man, our neighbor. However, where does their judgment find its wisdom in a resultant superseding of all others? This idea equates a form of vanity in the desired grasping of itself. Assuredly, at this point of existence, the mind can lessen its zealous forwarded plodding and relaxingly depress itself into sunken immobility and laziness. The need, as a result, being a sparking, a livening, a charge, of sorts, thereby spurting adrenaline through cloudy, and dusty vehicles of cerebral movement.
