What Realm Exist?


 

If heaven be above us
what lies below a deadly source
when the obvious is made plain
yet to seek no direct recourse

To stumble throughout life
with vain conceit is this the plan
many moons have passed before us
seems we still don't understand

Decisions connect our will
well mapped out journey not so sure
in search of GOD knows what
mankind does hunger still

Oblivious to the plight
all hands on deck in demand
to recover a lost world
is written in the sand

Round and round we go
cycles just repeat
we'd be much better off
knowing which cycles to delete

Life played like a game
reaps no just rewards
such a serious undertaking
with all things we discard

Discounting all its members
a deficiency we lack
left to suffer through whatever
a despicable habitat

Should we ever reach the place
where all are seen as valuable
then this world find true purpose
births the finite ultimate goodWhat
