Relinquit
What made Man think Heaven was in the sky?
Was the new sun purely radiant?
Did the clouds billow and swirl into
patterns for God’s hem?
Did birds utter in their own song
sweet voices of angels?
There is Hell in the Heavens now.
The sun eclipses and is shrouded
in smog and filth from
one Earth that has been the New Heaven.
Where has Heaven -gone-
Now?
Heaven: Relinquit
Why did Eden disappear?
Was Man sick of a
perfect Paradise?
Envious?
Or forlorn….
Bitter…. Relinquished….
Was it Man that
turned from Eden?
Where has Eden -gone-
Now?
Eden: Relinquit
If Man could understand
what Heaven is,
Could we
make Heaven come back
for us?
Hell: Relinquit
