a one and a two

 
up down
right left
light dark
life death
good evil
spirit matter
good god
bad god

yes i said this...
stay with me...

things are paired
their opposites wired
long long ages ago

we innocent souls
here - flesh-trapped thus
are indeed trapped
by our maker-god

ripped from the soul realm
we are caged in a skin
of our maker-god's truss

this god was angry
   with its children's disobey
it swore to hurt them
   with floods and famines
   and fire and war and disease
it swore to hurt them
   forever
in a dark and torturous place

yes, this was our maker-god

until a loving god came
until love showed up on the scene

the good god came!
and gave us the message...
   we will not die
   as the sins of old
   no longer apply!

this god swore
to love us forever
and to give us life
for an everafter, too

this god gave us a future
we cannot begin to imagine


note: there is a belief  that was declared a heresy; many were brutally killed for their hope - they believed that an evil creator-god has trapped our souls in flesh, and that the savior-god came to us, to free us... we need us to see (us) in our future life without flesh and with  life for eternity - when our souls are free of our flesh... we will truly wake
