A deal of time is spent considering the meaning of our lives and reflecting on what we should or shouldn't do with our time on this earth. Is it possible that you have little or no influence in these areas and that we are of little relative consequence?
MoL42
The issue
is raised periodically,
an answer
is never forthcoming,
solving it
is possible, theoretically,
is the solution
a matter of winning?
Six weeks
if counted in days,
Egyptian judges
examining a soul,
Sun-Earth
system ends in galactic years,
an Adams creation
for us all.
Deep
Thought’s response in 7.5 million years,
Marathon
to Athens an identical numeral,
the total number
of Tibetan rulers,
and column
lines in the Gutenberg Bible.
Carroll
used it in The Hunting of the Snark,
and for
those feeling somewhat low,
not
desirous of games or a lark,
the angle
of light hitting water for a rainbow.
In reality
MoL = 42 is Adam’s jest,
life is managing
change with guile,
meeting
death and strangers the best,
then,
before you sleep look back on today and smile.
