Not by Bread Alone
The sea shimmered,
under the moonlit sky.
Raucous waves rose and fell
desiring the land
Men and women
relishing the memories
of long last togetherness,
sipped the drinks of their choice
on the Beach's sand
Yesteryear damsels,
now mothers, & those playboys,
now sporting a paunch.
All discussed
life's meaning and purpose
In stupor,I uttered,
the biblical verse:'Man does not live by
bread alone'.
Pouncing on me,
they asked, what then?
'He lives by love;
by passion;
by madness;'I muttered
Life has neither meaning
nor purpose.
Existence is it's meaning;
usefulness to other lives;
it's purposes
