PURSUIT OF VANITY (poem)

…by Poetic Tee “Here, take a sip”

He pursued his ambition, till he consummated it

Best of what the world has to offer

What better than a house, cars, bank, huge reputation

What good is having everything pleasurable

Without a woman to shower with bounties unquantified.

Thereafter he decided to settled down, proliferate

To do what needs be done, way back when?

Marry love, beauty, to cherish and adore

Have a family, a heaven in exclusive suburb

Kids to dot on, take to grandma for a weekend.

But his new quest proved herculean

For love abandoned, has vacated his scenes

And just when he thinks his heart’s found home

Life suddenly jumps out of its rented abode

The tenancy having duly expired.

Only thing left, is for him to occupy

A bunk devoid of lights, breeze or green

As he came empty handed,

So he left, taking with him, nothing

Leaving behind a void, a terminal continuity.

ENDLESSLY QUESTING

…by Poetic Tee “Here, take a sip”

Why does man bother pursuing things?

Enriching his life with so many vanities

Amassing wealth, till he's famed for it

Benefiting none but a few, then waste it

Soon it all melts off. His legacy? Nothing

Forgotten like most others. Evaporated

Another takes center stage, repeating

A line tracing a path into a circle, full.

FAMED CROSSROAD

…by Poetic Tee “Here, take a sip”

Finally at that famed crossroad

Point of departure to unknown

No more standing back to back

On many a cybernetic war front

With digibees, swords unsheathed

Slaying a vain vermin, vagabonds

With their rotting blood dripping

On gleaming, razor sharp edges

Poisonous to them, to dear earth.

Enemies of knowledge, nay truth

Endlessly, the battle rages on

Ferociously consuming, wild fire

More they come, more they fell

I thought we'd do this for eternity

But eternity fast-forwards to today

Death has a merciful heart for you

Through it all, it spares us a scratch

Where it's sent many more to hell!

One of the best to set shoulders with

Equals yet unequal, rare in qualities

Fighter like none other, an amantoo

Just like she who stood her grounds

Tearing to shreds with light weaponry

Amazing amazon amassing credibility

Then it was grace time, she was taken

Friend, love, companion, now mother

Be you, you. Consistently you, always.
