Man, he gets one death
Like one life; I get that too.
What happens between
May or may not be so good;
Beyond this: Heaven. You choose!

- Comment from author about the poem: A syllabic tanka written in the traditional 5, 7, 5, 7, 7. Thirty one total syllables to convey the Christian eschatological truths known as “the Four Last Things” (Latin: quattuor novissima): Death, Judgment, Heaven, and Hell.

Gosh, all a bit strict.
strict consequentialism: if one runs enough red lights the laws of probability are fairly strict in that the consequences of an accident increase exponentially. Or perhaps you are referring to the “strict” form of the Tanka?
