Some are still waiting for the savior and others for the judgment day
Who said perfection is perfect, while perfection is perfectly relative.
For all those pathetic, refresh your minds…
Ashes to ashes and dust to dust
Mostly, you care about what is lost
Have you ever knew what you know
Have you ever had a “vue” of what you saw
Reconsider the Virus into your mind a rainbow.
Have you ever listened to what you hear
Have you ever passed the edge of your fear
Beneath the filth and beyond the sky
Surrounded by a taboo that can never reply
And you never dare to ask why…
You’re asking the nowhere about a wisdom
Tailoring a pair of earth and heaven’s kingdom
Whisperings of prayers and meditations
Filling the air with racial discriminations
Blowing the grounds with intimidations
Destroying yourselves by what you are
Building illusions to define who you are
Each and everyone runs after perfection
Owned by the god matters infection
And you are still waiting for resurrection…
Do not assume that I’m not a believer
Except I don’t have a belief fever
Do not assume I’m saying there’s no Holiness
Except I’m not addicted to this illness
I’m not into blank and blind haziness
W-E are not the “Chosen ones”
W-E are not the “Angels sons”
W-E HEAVEN.

I explained my feelings and how I have questioned God, I have given my explanation of how I have coped with the queries and how I have understand to my own satisfaction. I have read your poem which raises many questions and dictates your feelings which are personal to you and how you perceive their interpretation. These are two poems of each poet's thoughts and I see no problem with that, and is the reason I put the disclaimer in otherwise there would be discussion forever as each person argues their own interpretation. That is why I refuse to be have "blind faith".
As I see it, religion is a made made phenomena and the curse of mankind but yet it still gives hope for those unwilling to question be it for taking the easy way out or 'blind faith'. I purposely wrote this poem to be 'non sermonistic' which is difficult on such a subject, and I feel yours is for you are pushing your own convictions instead of raising the question for others to examine and make their own decisions. If someone believes in their heart rightly or wrongly about God and His ways, He will not punish them for they beieved in their own mind that they were sincere and honest. If this is wrong then all other religions will be punished and ai don't believe hat He is like that. He teaches us to live by a simple set of rules and it is our decision to accept or reject, but knowing there is a judgement eventually.

Some points are similar between how i think and believe and how you do that. it is right that everyone of us has its own style of expressing. My poem, my point, reconsider why is it that you (you is "x") believe.. reconsider why is it that you pray what you have been told to pray, since most of the people do that as a job.. reconsider why you are that into religious matters while all you have to do is believe in the goodness that you can be.. i do respectfully read and read again your comment and your thoughts and be wishing to read more of them. thanks.

Very interesting write
The ego isolates, the spirit/self merges: You lay out a good question or accusation: do we hear, see, feel, our lives? I guess in mass we just run everyday through this tiny maze made up of patterns, habits, w/pain and pleasure as motivators. Are we pathetic? Are you? Me? The human condition can seem very sad and trapped to me at times, two overlapping, opposing natures in one creature. The ego isolates because it can only see one idenity, you, you the wise, strong, special, superior one. And from that comes all the wicked, violent, ignorant destruction we see around us, in us. The spirit/self merges because in the light of the spirit we do see, know, feel the truth, a truth the nightly news or you local pastor might not be concerned with. When this occurs there is a humility, a kindness, and genuine care for people. Without this, and standing at any distance from people, I shit on everyone and thing.
thanks for your entry: enjoyed reading it, and hope i didn't digress too much in responding. Dave

in fact, u would never know what this comment have done to me, i mean wait a sec, i felt like hek tachet, i swear to God. You just dnt know how marvellous it is to read those words, to words from you such as the ones you've wrote in this comment, belive me, there wasn't and they'll never be a comment that i respect, that i Consider as the one right here.
I'm writing too much because i feel like telling too much after reading your words, but to end this i'll return the hug doubled and let me tell you one last thing. I loved the way u think, i love the way u express, and i'm delighted to know that my words meant sth that much to you.
