Meaning of

Purpose, do you know it?

The end of the means
our wishes and wants
oddly proximate

Wishy washy

All purpose
with our own
collected
in a pile
called humanity.

I tried to instruct Gemini as best I can on the meaning, and it gave me this translation, which, based on the descriptions, seem to be close to what I intended (I don't know french unfortunately):

​"Sens de"
​But, le connais-tu ?

​La fin des moyens
nos vœux et nos désirs
curieusement proches

​Eau de boudin
(This line could possibly also be "À l'eau de rose")

​Tout dessein
avec le nôtre
accumulé
en un tas
appelé l’humanité.

at first read, for my level in English and the lack of knowledge in the colloquial statements, it was difficult to understand

now I'll cheat and need an AI to get a good translation, hope the AI doesn't transform the original
