Quatrain of Heedless Providence
Heedless - thoughtless
Providence - benevolent intervention
in human life
Frightful! Unrelenting pain,
famine of the mind, reflexive
and unfurled,
No rhyme to traveled roads;
no reason for despair, hideously
curled.
Providence without a map,
concocted on the fly - orbiting
into a void.
Reckless and foreboding,
scraping skin from the bone;
life carelessly destroyed.
