in an effort to find meaning
i seek to compare myself
to constructed meaning
widely accepted meaning
safely played out meaning
socially approved meaning
ridiculous and unattainable meaning
far-fetched and idyllic meaning
extravagant and abstract meaning
meditative and contoured meaning
confining yet defining meaning
knowing inside and out
that i am only gleaning
the surface of meanings
in order to find some unquenchable reason for being
