Rise and Fall

I am standing
I fall and stand
Stand and fall
As I like...
Like say tomorrow no dey!

Soon
Or sooner
Perhaps soonest...
I Shall fall
And won't stand...
I will be carried
Lifted
Placed...
Yet I won't stand...
Again!

Then...
I will stand again
And write
Speak
Confess
Profess
Account
With no discount
But with precise precision
And utmost accurate accuracy...
Then all veils
Will be unveiled
And my standing and falling
To end will come...

The end
I know not
But I pray it be
That which will make 
Me jump and praise 
Him with all actuality!...

Prayer, good
... But...
Am I good to go?
Am I prepared for
When I fall and won't rise
Till I will be risen again?

Reflect before you deflect
One day...
Six yards, six feet...
