Heaven Waiting

These eyes afire
of Heaven desire
greet the hand of Jesus
Receive the wings made by Him
World yawning
children mocking

WHY THE HELL SHOULD I STAY HERE,ANYWAY

Pointing their middle finger at my eye
Of what more this Old Gentleman has to say
Cackling folk
Think that my poems are a joke
Parading around me with syringes
Always their hand in that powder of coke

I am looking yonder to leave
Earth forever
Twilight station to receive
One more Soul 
On an Eastbound train
God's Kingdom forever
Goodbye Earth and Pain
