    Default Pointless!

    Life makes no sense
    Death makes even less
    I don't know why we're here
    Don't know what we are

    Some speak about God
    But there's no such thing
    Others speak of evolution
    Part of an animal kingdom

    Are we viruses with brains
    With binocular vision
    With opposable thumbs
    Standing on two legs

    Speaking diverse languages
    Words that have no meaning
    Outside our own cultures
    Just sounds and symbols

    I have one more decade
    One final last chapter
    Then eternal oblivion
    Like I never existed

    I used to really care
    Now it's so irrelevant
    I'll live out my life
    Knowing that it's Pointless!

    I think of the beatniks
    Of the lost 1950s
    Popping fingers in coffee shops
    And reciting nonsense

    Maynard G. Krebs
    You remember Dobie Gillis
    Uncle Jed in Cat Ballou
    Pointless!

    Don't forget both Tuesday Weld and Warren Beatty got their start in Dobie Gillis.

    Eternal don't know, Jim. I am a total agnostic person too, just taking it as it is and leaving the wishful thinking to others.
    Evolution is a fascinating item; WHAT we are is indeed even hard to define, but I decline to be a virus as at times I feel like throwing my laptop out of the window because of them,lol
