Buying In

Do you buy in?
Or do you question?
Do you lose yourself sometimes
In the restless musings of your dreamer mind
In the dissatisfaction of your current life
Or are you content ?
With the way of the world
With the seemingly pointless existence

Do you buy in to your higher purpose
Or the bribe of your afterlife
Do you believe like so many of us
That the body is fleeting
And that the soul rejuvenates

Isn’t it the same?
As wanting more than this construct
To wonder if this life is the experiment
And that all of us are learning
Breaking the cycle, one life at a time
Embracing the madness, the ebb and flow of life

Who are the masters then,
Who cracks the whip and makes us go on
If our memories be ourselves
Then who holds us prisoner
At the interruption of the cycle
Who becomes the teacher
Is that who is God or the Devil?
Who sits in judgement of our life
Do you buy in ?
Or do you question?
