“Death is near” online poem submitted by Cyrus A. Diaz

Walking feet under the sky

He will be concealed

On the ground one day

At a time in the near future

His destruction will come like

A whirlwind that would

Chaff him like thresh.

He may live hundred years

On earth but he will

Spend forever in eternity

For his body is only his soul’s

Momentary dwelling place

His soul is concluded twice:

Heaven or hell?

Oh, sinners be aware

Of the fearful danger

It is a great furnace of wrath

It is a bottomless pit of

Fire and worms that never dies.

Souls crying in extreme misery

And perfect despair

They howl for salvation

Of their spirit.

Therefore, let everyone

Be wake from deep sleep

And be aware of the wrath to come.

Let everyone be free from Sodom

For no one can redeem you soul

Not even your wealth,

Not even your achievements,

Your acquaintance,

The kings, prophets not the saints

And the powerful of the earth,

Noting that you have done,

Nothing of your own.

There’s nothing you can do

For only God can spare you.

But lucky are those who have

Invested so much for eternity

They, who obeyed, feared
