Hopeless,
futility-fucked,
drained.
Existential pain.
You think too much,
agonize,
looking for the best way,
trying to do the right thing.
And now you’re excluded…
With no choice but to
swim against the current,
continually,
then,
tread water in perpetuity,
a kind of purgatory,
how long can it last?
How long can you last?
Like water disappearing down a drain,
you are depleted,
expiring,
drained.
And eventually,
totally exhausted, you sink,
drown,
starved, you die.
Alas,
the ocean has no grain.
