Nothing Would Ever Make Sense Poem by Margaret Alice

If reincarnation is true
and I believe it – I do
because without it
NOTHING would ever make sense
being born on the pavement
living a short span of life
versus being a king
would simply too horrible
to contemplate
if it were not for the idea
of reincarnation – getting
another chance, if you so wish
to live an earthly life…

But why, oh why
did I have to choose
an allergy -
making me sad
ill and bad
when I eat
certain food?

My only hope
is to lift up my soul
to such an extent
that I never have
to come back
to this earth
just to move on
to another place
where corporeal existence
is just a far-off
memory…

The only way
it can work
is to solve
all puzzles on earth
and damn! - is that
difficult!

It’s back to “Codes of Love”
with Mark Bryan tonight
so the pain in my heart
still goes on
all in the hope
that in this life
I can solve
the mystery
of pain and love
so I can start
to focus on
the things
above …
