Tribulation
If living for subsisting
or existing to survive
Purpose stays elusive
any sense can’t derive
Going about in vortex
moving at rapid pace
No time for indulgence
in own personal space
Stuck in same tedium
since been on to avoid
On face near amiable
but zest seems devoid
In inferred conspiracy
end's nowhere in sight
No choice but contend
odds in a solitary fight
Cards face up on table
& nothing to withhold
Rest all left to destiny
for enigmas to unfold
Trail kind of ceaseless
doubt where it’ll head
if ensues in notoriety
or rewards up ahead
