Where are the dead

Heaven, hell, purgatory, rebirth, limbo, dust?

Are we to chase and cease, never to come?

The hijinkery, sorrows and sorries overcome

Life defeated, death to live

Where are the dead?

 

Presence made absence

Living not known perhaps the knower

If life becomes breaker

Who, where then, unmerited sufferings, the justice bringer?

Where are the dead?

 

Earth torments scourges

Some, many build their purgatory reaping heaven

On the hell them bring

Where are the dead?

 

Compulsory service,

Did we write an application?

Did we choose the position?

Would we choose our time, the transition?

Please where are the dead?

 

Would pen and paper there be?

What of Ben and dad?

Would the knower pay to all my deed?

Would the dying see the dead?

HELL, please tell.
