Fleeting Permanence

how permanent has this
life become...  when my
day is spent reflecting
and writing the words that
only appear in my mind
and that are never shared
with others who have
endeavored similarly;
how desperate are we all,
creatures of life who
walk erectly on their fee
instead of crawling 
around on the ground,
searching for more food;
how incriminating are
our actions that we take it
upon others and ourselves
in happiness pursuits
oftentines yielding nothing
for which we can wager on
another few days of life;
how incriminating we 
have become as we tend to
slaughter all our previous
fond memories for new ones
hoping they will provide
us with that which we seek
but are unaware of its
ever changing valuation
on which we bet our souls.
