            Futility

Cornucopias horn is full
Yet born is much hunger.
There are more then three bags of wool
Who hordes it, which monger?

The author of authors writes pages
Time eats and burps away
Through the banquet of the ages
Bilious with gay and bray.
        
And apocalypse toasts the few
Pledging lust and power
Always mesmerizing the new
With greed of the hour.

Is this the seed the final core
Futile insanity.      
The exit of the gardens door        
Final humanity?

But who am I to rap times rend
I know no better end.

I loved this seymour, although the style remains uniquely yours, the tone reminded me a bit of Dorothy Parker, my all time favorite cynic and fatalist...and ya suited my mood perfectly...smiles and thanks.
