SPIRITUAL DISEASE

Our body, mind and spirit too,
There's no way we can separate.
When 'seen' together in our mind
A tetrahedron they create.

Its base, the function of our form
Is our reaction to the void.
It's found by asking "Why am I?",
A question 'Eve' could not avoid.

Unique reactions we create
By blending only two of three.
From nature we've got the "ideal"
One of the two it needs to be.

With the "ideal" we reach out to
The ends of our capacities,
To others and to Nature's God.
It is the only one that frees

Us from the emptiness we feel
Each time we ask of life its why.
The second just lets us "give up";
To "fill the void" we also try.

With the "ideal" our spirit shines.
When we give up our 'light' goes out.
And when we try to fill the void
We feel dark, self-destructive doubt.

To the degree that we "...reach out..."
Our sense of spirit is at ease.
As decreased by the other two
Our spirit suffers from disease.

It's caused by nourishment we feed
To both our body and our mind.
We feed ourselves what we get from
And we then give back to mankind.

ALCOHOL, DRUGS, SEX and other anesthetics

When 'Eve' first wondered "Why am I?"
Humanity became aware
Of self, of others, and the void
That to avoid they took great care.

Since then we've tried eight diverse ways
To fill the void the question leaves.
Among them we continue to
Diminish our capacities
With alcohol, drugs, games and sex
And techno-means to numb our mind
So if we ask the "why?" of life
The emptiness we do not find.
Some say it shouldn't be a crime.
But since we live collectively,
Decreasing them we should think is                                
A crime against humanity.

The other ways are also crimes.
One can't be used to solve the rest.
Our only hope for crime free lives,
Discard them all to leave what's best.
It's reaching to the limits of
Inherited capacities,
To others, and to Nature's God,
The only way that we can ease
The common burden that we share
With needed maximum success.
This natural activity
Can ease the fear of emptiness.

GOOD and EVIL

The good and evil we believe
Are absolute opposing traits,
Oppose each other but are found
In relatively fluid states.

They're from reactions to the void
Behind the question "Why am I?"
Our evil is created when
The ways to fill the void we try.
Our good is born in reaching to
The bounds of our capacity,
To others, and to Nature's God,
The "ideal" way for us to be.

The traits end a continuum.
Our evil blends with good between.
The closer to the good we are
The less of evil will be seen.
As we approach the evil end
It will become more evident
While signs of good will disappear;
And any blend we can present.
We can present completely good.
We need some good in every blend.
Removing every bit of good
Will take us to an evil end.

Our good brings life, our evil death.
Our evil dominates our lives.
Replacing evil with our good
May mean humanity survives.

RELIGION

Religion is a human 'wrong'
With which we try to fill the void.
Humanity will not survive
Unless religions we avoid.

While hanging on to our beliefs
To others we cannot "...reach out...",
Depriving us of nourishment
For life, we cannot do without.

Religions aren't the source of 'rights',
The traits that we consider good,
And motivation making us
"Do unto others..." as we should.

Good traits and motivation are
What let humanity survive
Until the point in history
Religions started to arrive.

Since then religions have decreased
The 'rights' that made humanity.
Discarding all of them will help
Restart the way we used to be,

United individuals
In common cause we all applaud,
Becoming what we each can be,
In part the face of Nature's God.

NEWTOWN: the aftermath

Let's not forget around the world  
So many children died that day.
The focus is on Newtown, for
The others are so far away.

Whenever there's a tragedy
Believers try to fit in God
Because they think it's in God's plan,
A view that we should not applaud.

No tragedy is planned by God;
But if God is, God will be pissed
If in the aftermath God sees
Another chance to change we missed.

The change we need to make is clear.
It's hard yet simple but profound.
We need to drain away beliefs
So we can see our common ground.

From there we reach out to the ends
Of our unique capacities,
To others, and to nature's God,
The way that's free of tragedies.
