pretended permanence

if luck is the residue of design
then love must be the residue of desire
what is left over
post initial passions
what usually does not last
far past the first carnal desires
and initially satisfied impulses

or so i've heard
i've only witnessed one

and i've always wondered

what if design was a myth
and life just a byproduct
of impulse
a few handfuls of orgasms  
passions
a few creampies
desires
and some seriously deep seated clingy weirdness
what if all of it
all of this
was never meant to last
very far past the end of anything
and that holding onto ghosts
on a diet of strict denial
is the very opposite of living
(more folks should be swinging. . . )

a thought provoking write
how many times does one think the same?
excellent message that unfortunately will be beyond comprehension by many

I don't think this is beyond the comprehension of many. What is it that you think the "message" of this poem is?

Bloody awful... Definitely some of the worst, ego-laden, disgustingly self-absorbed writings I have come across in a loooong minute... L2P... L2Write... Useless bumbling moron...
