Something About Beliefs


Some folks believe heaven awaits them;
Some folks seem assured there’s a hell.
Ain’t no one yet made it back from the

Grave to tell. Others yet believe we trans-
Form to another life right here on Earth,
Reincarnation, they claim, spirit embodied

As a cow or a snake. I’m of a mind there is
A dark continent in which the soul lingers for
An interminable spell. Life has a beginning,

I figure, good times and bad sprinkled ran-
domly about the midlands for most folks,
And a finale for all involved—not so well.

Depending on how you look at it—heaven,
Hell or somewhere in between—it’s all bound
By Universality to stretch out for an eternity.
