Seeker

Strenuous struggle 
Mucking through muddle,
Beguile and Befuddle
Tedious trouble.

Watery waiting  
Truth violating 
Cretin creating
Maliciously mating.

This brambling purpose
A serpentine circus 
Danes to usurp us
And pin me to ground.

I’ve searched and I’ve found
Some of what’s missing:
Cavernous kissing,
Cackling and cussing.

Forever I’m fussing
And need to get clear.
When treasures are near
It all stops right here.

In grinding these matters
It just make me sadder.
I try to get on,
Peace of mind so hard won.

While sometimes it’s fun,
To search and to seek,
My patience is ebbing
My hope getting weak.
