Afterlife Accounting

Work for your world, 
But don't forget your afterlife, 
No one knows today if we are together, 
For tomorrow is not certain
Let's pray for every moment
After we're tired all day with our work
Life is not worth for keeping
Our life is a borrowed life
Someone above us is the rightful owner
When the time of accounting comes
We are free of giving our litanies
Not gnashing of teeth in the corner
But coming out the Great Court as victor.

Westerly Far Birds

Let us take you up then
Where litanies of darkness mount the sun
Rest us on the magic night, bleakest evil oars
Arid pair of sleepy rebels float, limbs and root
Pretending what we are, reversed dreams of fields
Open as the window that is life, or so it seems
Hear the whish of mindful trees and zombie bark
Let us take you down, in dionysian diction 
Where reality fluffs it’s cranberry tendrils 
Where “real” is just a latin undulation of noise

Premium Member On Cuddling Hope

As warmth of evening hangs near, 
wrapped in skyscape ' s cashmere
  It  bathes the woods, the frontier 
with  hints of godliness dear…
                        
Winged robins from boughs I hear 
chanting litanies that steer
            Moonbeams of  hush to appear 
like glazed flame of hope, revere
That my relentless doubt severe   
 washes  a cold, helpless tear;
          Abating shadowed night’s fear
 snuggling breaths ...with heaven's cheer.
