Confession - Poetry by Monolin Manny Moreno, Guess Blogger, Author


Confession
 

Everything has a beginning,
 an origin creation story, 
the universe, rivers, trees you and I.
 We're only a breath
 in the grand scheme of things,
 and who on earth really knows
 where we go from here
 when the worms inherit our flesh.

 It's a horrible feeling to imagine,
 a lake of fire could be where
 you're bound to, 
for the moronic way you lived, 
to be with all the other morons
 from the very first moron
 of the human race, 
there moaning, gnashing their teeth.

 
Imagine when you crossover
 a winged creature 
shining like a star will be there
 to greet you to hand you
 a one way ticket to hell,
 

where the fire is inexhaustible,
 and every vile and evil being
 ever existed since the origin of man
imagine you might be rubbing
 elbows with them.

 
Maybe you're not a moron,
 though you lived at times like one,
 for the most part 
you been a goody two-shoes,
 and for that you think
 you deserve to enter through
 those big-ass pearly gates


 when you leave this world,
 where man from the cross
 will be there standing, 
smiling all hippie-like, 
to show you your mansion
 he promised for being one of his sheep.


 Why won't it be a tipi, 
or a shack like the shack you grew-up in,
 who's to know if the mansion
 isn't just an adobe hut?

Maybe we'll just end-up little lights.
