The Turnaround

We have come to the juncture
   They are at the turnaround
                Hey, 
They are headed for Heaven
       Yet, the others'
    Are heaven bound
        With no distention
    They are lost to be found
    They are looking for Eternal
          Edification, which can only
Be found through the trust of God
              - And -
      To thy God, Ye' must
     Submit or become like
           The others'
  Amidst' the bottomless pit

I may not be religious, but I still was captivated by this poem, the rhyme scheme and word choice is impeccable.
