Who’s Reality

Poem Commentary

Politics, religion - both stir emotions and arguements. Who is right? Who is wrong? I have my beliefs, and I am sure you have yours. And no matter what either of us believe, in the end, it will have been a long time, of having been wrong, if you are not believing and trusting in what is right. Here is a litmus test: have you ever done something wrong...(come on, you know it was wrong)? Didn't it weigh on your conscience for a while? Now, think about something that you did that was just right? Okay, it probably stayed on your conscience for a while too (lets hope), but didn't you want to share it, weren't proud of that accomplishment, didn't it make you smile? Okay, that is what right feels like. You don't need to defend it...it needs none. You don't have to explain it a 100 different ways to try and get someone to believe in it...it doesn't need that...it will prove itself. Right is right...even if no one is doing it -- and -- wrong is wrong, even if EVERYONE is doing it.

Who’s Reality

Who’s right, who’s wrong,
  who are the weak, who are the strong;
who’s reality will mend,
  who’s right in the end?

You are courageous, you are brave,
  till your dying day, unto the grave;
beyond for those who eternally live,
  a life beyond, so much to relive.

Some will linger, delayed in purgatory,
  others gaze out, from on promontory;
release yourself from your moral sins,
  trust in God, for He always wins.

Know the truth and be set free,
  may this quest be, your destiny;
go out like Elijah, ascending in fire,
  peace and harmony, tranquil desire.
