Poem Artwork

He who benefits, he does it in his vital strengths

To be then styled as ‘a beneficial man’;

 

He who convert, he does it in accord with his shape

To be then called by the name of ‘converter.’

 

If you can benefit and, what’s more, can convert,

You can then be registered in the Celestial Office

As an extraterrestrial and immortal.

 

But if you can neither benefit nor convert,

At the end of the day and before too long, alas,

You will be transformed into a local mortal.

That is the very same pitch that Christianity gives when it asks you to convert and be saved… Therefore becoming extraterrestrial and immortal.
