Immortality
Banished from Earth, death had been
For centuries, none had ventured to go
Not a soul to heaven
Not a spirit to rise
Until one day, Mother Earth cried
"California to sea,
Japan must quake.
God wants new company
And shall have it today."
Comparisons
How crude glasses are to eyes
And hearing aids to ears
Laxatives to intestines
Shoes to feet
Clothes to skin
Speech to thought
Culture to nature.
