I would much rather have the karma of being eaten by hungry lions
Than be a spectator cheering for human death in a Roman coliseum...

A Conscious Existence
"I am," in my own mind
Senses aware of what's around me

"I am," also in spirit
Sensing a divine connection

God revealed through multiple ways
Including a follower of Jesus' pathway

Seeking broadened divine awareness
Living as human, death won't escape me

Eternally connected to the Creation Mystery
Existing always as a God-created wonder...

Oblivion
Your lovely name will sink into oblivion
Your pretty face will lose its charm
And all your moves and gestures that were accurate
Would be uncomfident and clumsy

You were the reason of human death
They sold their souls for hearing your voice
You were a siren, who took their last breath
You were the greatest creature of Nyx

People compared your body to the art
They tagged along without a word
They called you Seducer, Sweetheart, the God 
But no one could  see your wrenched wings...
