Poem Artwork



I shall tell you a great secret my friend. Do not wait for the last
judgement, it takes place every day.........Albert Camus




BY THE BOOK


How close are we to heaven, while still in human skin?
As we're cloaked for our protection, to host the soul within
The vessel for our virtue, the keeper of our health
To honor as a temple, or burn ourselves to hell

How close are we to heaven, while still in human skin?
We're a breath away from dying, yet reborn as we breathe in
We're organic as the flora, as fresh as morning dew
By the past we're all connected, in each lifetime's debut

How close are we to heaven, how far are we from hell?
Its a spit second decision, AND time WILL only tell
We'll know agony and splendor, thru out this time at hand
Our time upon this earth, will preceed as WE have planned

Some believe in heaven, some believe in hell
Some believe in realms, where cosmic beings dwell
Whatever you believe in, give honor to that creed
Cuz SOMEPLACE there's a ledger book, recording all your deeds!

This is a very respectable piece of work.. congratulations! As they taught us at the university, a great artwork is one with a philosphy and vision (not just feelings).So, do you believe (like me) that WE chose to exist? That is very interesting!

I believe that some go to heaven and some go to hell. Some care and some don't. It's a funny world filled with funny people. What can you say?....Perhaps just give up for good.
