Senseless


Ecclesiastes 1:6 New English Translation (NET Bible)

6 The wind goes to the south and circles around to the north;
round and round the wind goes and on its rounds it returns.

 

 

Senseless

 

You’ll never know ... a ray of hope.

an idle thought ... or a dream caught.

It seems so real and has appeal

like the fulfillment of a hunger.

 

Where is my heart ... that from the start

did not trust ... indeed a must?

Nowhere found without a sound.

we know it no longer.

 

Splashing mind ... not to kind

confessionary ... illusionary.

Far too late ... now out of date

never to grow stronger.
