karmic eventuality - II

06/26/2021

 

there, in the midsts of opulence , stood I

floors of alabaster marble, columns of Marquina black,

open in all directions, including the heavens above,

gradual elevation, in key motif, to a higher standard,

seated on Lapis Lazuli, judges of the day

 

standing in that magnificent hall of justice, 

creators, of opposing representation, themselves present,

when one, known by all, in positivity, meaning God,

looks down upon my disheveled appearance, 

reflecting true extents of my deeds performed,

asks, “what shall be my judgement?”

I respond, “let my existence cease, that be my punishment.”

then, His brethren, from the nether world, the Satan,

asks, “what shall be my judgement?”

I respond, “let my existence cease, that be my reward.”

    This reminds me if the works of Raymond E Feist and his depiction of the Gods. I do like your last verse. A good poem 🙂

      Hi Suresh
      Typo? seize = cease? If right , let me know and I'll delete. If wrong, give me a blast.....

      • SureshG

        Hey, greatly appreciate you correcting me, initially started with ‘seize my existence” then forgot to change when changed to ‘existence cease’

          A rich picture of the court with God and Satan presiding. Fun. I don't need to ask (couldn't anyway) because.... more than likely.... I won't be going anywhere......
          Enjoyed your work.

          Our fate is in the hands of the god in which we may believe - or not.
