life is a series
of questions and quests
events and memories
the betters and bests
who will discover
and who will become
an artist, a lover
a brother, or chum
seeking and searching
and wondering why
striving and reaching
and learning to fly
why must we struggle
and strive on this quest?
we trample, we juggle
to be better than best
simple is second
and less is a bore
becoming fecund
still striving for more
along the quest
more questions arise
we dream of rest
and try to theorize
the meaning of life
the striving and seeking
