Life Eternal

Let us not be slaves
to cycles and numbers,
stars are infinite we know...

Like, travel a sea

despite our direction

on their own waves come
and go, schools of little fishy
on and on flow -- 

And, if tomorrow
there was no man, burned
by his own hot iron, branding will
of his ill jaded clan

the earth will

and the earth can

replace what needed of species

oblivious to learned philosophies
and embellished treatises -- 

God preplanned our worth

required death before birth....

God preplanned our worth. How profound that line is. I feel this world has to be changed. God can do everything.

Required death before birth, yes! Born into the wicked world, we must give it up for the “real world” heaven that is!! Blessings!
