Love Poem: Urban Afternoon Reflection

Urban Afternoon Reflection

Sitting here
   gazing out 
of 
my 
window 
    hearing autos rush by 
   I meditate on our dilemma 
   Citizens of a small planet in the vast 
cosmos 
We spend our time 
searching for love 
and peace 
   Trapped on a one way path 
   to nowhere 
We must find some meaning in our lives 
Sex, intoxicants, music 
relieve the pain temporarily 
"But there is always the question"
