Joe Maverick Poet Rhyme

So we do, then die '

On earth we reason, and strive; and lie..Connive
And posture, are elated and cry, we build
 up
edifices and would blot out the sun? 
Then
Pass as mere shadows..' Doing our deeds untill
We all must die; everyone.' Yet not to life"
 for it exists past
Time, in the mind of God! Now where is your 
divine.?

Sotto Poet June 19, 2026 at 11:35 AM Joe, you penned a short but meaningful poem whose main focus is human transience, not heavenly life. It's about humanity's struggles, triumphs, and mortality in life beyond death based on God's purpose. It also questions divine understanding. This is a fave Joe Maverick June 19, 2026 at 1:01 PM I appreciate you getting The grasp of the levels In here Sotto..The Divine aspect is human oriented as in where we/they are placing; or finding their concept of God.)
