Laws Of God And Man Poem by Obodokasi Ade'etem Agbor

The stables of heaven are risen
And hell plummets and sets low
In its abyss lay fruits forbidden
And my brother I know,
Holds love for the curs'd amid Eden.

Nights have I spent on strumpet calls
And day on drunk drinks till night falls
Times what my neighbor holds I find value
Most times I stray'd my bounds and snap'd a few.

Now, of twenty score years i have seen earth
Take as much as i have strayed from faith
I reckon it leaves me with hell and death
And a night in Hades i hear is hate.

Heaven did God first found
And Then Hades too as man's test
Two meres he set as bound-
Mercies and love: man made the rest.
