The single answer to each query known

 This is a place where none will ever stay,
since we go down the road on which we rose
the map’s not needed to show us the way.
The path we travel’s easy to expose,
and we don’t reach the objects to bulldoze 
might bring to mind the thought we may transcend 
our ordinary selves. But then things froze,
we all arrive at the same equal end.

We are the actors in an absurd play
scripted by fools whose purpose, we propose,
is to proclaim that they’re another clay
than us onstage who seek to grasp the rose
that rises from our hearts, but none yet knows 
if we’ll meet darkness, yet we all pretend 
to think the rules are broken by our pose.
We all arrive at the same equal end 

by every road at the same point of  day.
If we could strike our rivals on the nose
it would not matter, we can never stay
in a safe garden. No one may oppose 
our onward march, nor that of all our foes,
to the one factor we cannot transcend
 either in poems , or in simple prose:
We all arrive at the same equal end.

Prince of injustice, whom we may suppose
eternal ruler, that you won’t unbend
is the one law that every being knows,
we all arrive at the same equal end.
