Heaven On Earth

I could never understand why you had to wait

until you were dead to go to heaven, and why

you would need a priest as a go between….oh,

that’s right, it’s a religion.

Even the hippies knew that heaven was in your 

mind, so, I guess, the LSD was helpful after all.

We all know people that are in hell on the spot

when they’re angry. Why can’t we be in heaven

on the spot?

We can.

It’s called enlightenment, which has nothing to 

do with religion.

Heaven is the natural state of mind that is free

from confusion and conflicting emotions.

Who has that?

Buddha, for sure…Christ too, which is why 

they killed him.

Christ taught love and compassion, which the

Jews were never into.

They still like their old, jealous God, and the

money lenders are still in the temple.

Revolutionaries change the way people see things.

Buddha was one as was Christ,

Mohammed not so much.

Maybe a Deus Ex Machina, sent by God, 

is on its way (3I/Atlas?) to set humanity straight.

The way things are going, it might as well could be.
