Heaven And Hell Poem by Kurt Philip Behm

Do your words sharpen,
as your feelings dull

Do your actions harken,
what's still to know

Do your wheels spin faster
as you sink in place

Does the meaning retreat,
as you blindly chase

Do your moments forecast,
or serve to remind

Does the past just bookmark,
what the future refinds

Does the master you serve,
in false prophecy dwell

Do you still have that choice,
—between Heaven and Hell
