Poem Commentary

when you realize life is over and you make a big mess of it,,oh yeah,,

LOST TIME,,,

I knelt to pray but not for long, I had too much to do.

I had to hurry and get to work, for bills would soon be due.

So I said a hurried prayer, and jumped up from off my knees.

My Christian duty was now done; my soul could be at ease.

All through the day I had no time, to spread a word of cheer.

no time to speak of Christ to friends, they'd laugh at me I'd fear.

No time, no time, too much to do, that was my constant cry.

No time to give to souls in need, but at last, it was time to die.

And when before the Lord I came, I stood with downcast eyes.

For in his hands God held a book; it was the book of life.

God looked into his book and said, 'Your name I cannot find.

I once was going to write it down... but never found the time   
damn damn if only i knew aaaaah......

Nice fairytale of a religion that kills.Death to Christ oh wait that already happened

Poetry comes nearer to vital truth than history.

Plato (BC 427-BC 347) Greek philosopher.
