My 50 Cents on Life After This
What is life
After this?
Sure I won’t buy on the idea
that I can live in the body of a worm
or a body of a frog
or a body of an elephant
I won’t also buy on the idea
that I’ll be turn to vapor
or be like the clouds
that can turn to rain
and water the plains
and back in the sky again
I’m not a theologian
so better not ask me
if what is heaven, hell or purgatory
Hades or Scheol
Olympus, the Elysian Fields or the netherworld,
Paradise, Limbo or New Eden
as I still haven’t been there!
My knowledge about them
I heard and read in poems, stories and tales
I will not also buy on the idea
that I’ll be living on the earth again
Gosh, one life here is enough I guess
than be back here and repeat the cycle
of being a baby
going back to school
Earning money
and preparing for retirement.
that is unless the earth
really badly overly needs the same person again.
LOL
Heaven!
Wow, it’s the best,
eternal peace, love and happiness
every moment is a bliss
But the purging thing is what I’m intending
as I know I’m not as holy as the saints and prophets
or as pure and clean as the cherub and angels
so I need somewhat a cleansing process
and hell for me is somewhat so tormenting
and it’s been an excruciating feeling.
so better avoid the evils that can get there.
so I don’t know where really it is.
It’s a mystery
and uncovering the mystery may not be task
given to me
and I’ll just follow what the good one says.
to be good to others and
to live life in a good way.
