Futility

Randy Nii your accidental phrase "love is a lifeline" brought about this poem.

Futility

Love is a lifeline
Love is a palm sign
Mapping alignments
Between star studded cosmos
Spinning above us
A galactic waxing
And waning
Of incomprehensible design.

Love is a lifeline
Baby show me your soft palms
I will make note of your address
Final destination's sad trace
Maybe you and I
We'll lose each other
It's okay
Nothing in our greedy hands
The archway pre engineered
Your mind only inclines
Stellar axes determine.

Love is a life line
Walk away from divination's
Website
The spin of your fortune
The lamellated cast moon
Will lift you, leap and soar
But you fall cold stardust
Weighed down by saggy
motions.

Love is a lifeline
Fragile rosy etched fine
Elegantly striking out through
plains and valleys and deftly
Turning back at mountains
To destroy your creation
Yoked to
Ephemeral emotions

Love is a lifeline
Taken at the floodgates
Flushfaced by four aces
Whirlpool down the drab drain.
You will fall into a deep place
Murderous poppy fields
Hack at your space
Bring eternal sleep
As days turn darker
Heralding great night

Love ends in perfect alignment
Imperfect destiny
Fulfilled flawless.
This love is just
a faint delicate line
Drunken daisies joining hands
In feeble chains of futile
Conspiracy.
My fallacious malicious
Lifeline.
