The Tomb (by Joe DiMino)

 

Sons of God

heir to the throne,

or mere mortals

exercising our only apparent freedom--

the right to die

or live buried in ignorance....?

 

Surely Father

did not heap this stone before us

sealing us from light and love

saturated with earth--

Oh!--what extent this freewill,

from the high of heaven

to the depth of hell....
