Futility Poem by kelvin karani

Stop being guided

By fictional characters;

Life is not coded

The way the novel is

Fictional ideals goals

Hopes dreams and visions

Only can come true

In a fictional world.



Thanks for the advice,

But what are we to do?

Ignore good and cherish vice?

Fictitious ideals goals

Hopes dreams and visions

Have ruined this world.

Stop being guided

By fictitious characters.



Life appears to be literal

Though its very literary.

It’s a world of paradoxes,

Nothing is what it seems.

Life is ‘miragish’ magical

Surreal and for moribund characters.



Literary or literal

Fictitious or fictional

Perhaps matters not

Considering the teacher:

Everything is meaningless!

The wise and the fool

Are overtaken by the same fate.
