Every useless breath <br />every pointless sigh <br />each and all essential <br />to the naked eye <br /> <br />blank is the expression <br />black colors the cry <br />both of these have meaning <br />to the naked eye <br /> <br />but every soft expression <br />every seething sigh <br />hangs in my perception <br />a short and useless lie <br /> <br />I fail to find the meaning <br />I fail to take in strength <br />I pray I will fail, to fail to hope <br />to futilely fail away.<br /><br />Daniel Phillips<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/futility-in-action/
