Won’t a silly life usurp?

Finding true peace of mind while with zest
hoping to show off how we’re ‘blessed’
struggling intensely to stay abreast
with those most elegantly dressed?

Are we lacking in discernment?
Won’t silly life usurp us
mire us in mundane internment
oblivious to purpose?

While acquisitive restraint much maligned
perhaps a journey of most wondrous kind?
