Jesus' General Amnesty > your retirement plan (couplets)

But one is even as a Shaker chair
dwarfed by galaxies that rotate there
& superclusters of the same as stars
arranged in constellations. Beyond Mars
gas giants do their duty, organelles...  

Meanwhile, most go for that which strokes & sells
& ye shall know them by this sign: they say
“retirement” “mortgage” “practical” all day.
But “practical” is just the sepulcher 
dressed up in alabaster, splashed with myrrh.

One is not better off than on the dole
if one has not done more than heaping coal.

Shockwaves from the Crucifixion (couplets)

As rain drops fall within the sky,
so even joy enfolds a cry;
so bubbles rise within the sea,
foot-dragging shirks behind decree,
a prince of evil swamped by Love;
so doth the hand fit to the glove;
so Intercessor named "Guan Yin";
so interplay of Yang & Yin;
so Jesus Sutras reach the East
with the Nestorians, at least;
Sidharthaism--> Ancient Greece
(great white expanse as Golden Fleece).
A Nameless Dream & Hidden Voice!
In which nor both should one rejoice?
For one converted this Wild West,
the firstborn that Far East at best.
