Eternal Life

repress your instincts
suppress your impulses
you are civilised
frustration follows
we inflict sufferings
then on each other
and on ourselves
we create god
multiple then
recently single
religion is born
consolation
for the masses
hope for eternal
life what is the point
of eternal life if you
cant live here fearless
