Haiku – Heaven and Hell

Above, Heaven calls

Singing God’s praises on high

The angels, the saved

(R.I.P. Ronnie James Dio)

Hell screams from below

A cacophony of sounds

The tortured and damned

•

Sing me a song, you’re a singer

Do me a wrong, you’re a bringer of evil

The Devil is never a maker

The less that you give, you’re a taker

So it’s on and on and on

…it’s Heaven and Hell, oh well

The lover of life’s not a sinner

The ending is just a beginner

The closer you get to the meaning

The sooner you’ll know that you’re dreaming

So it’s on and on and on

Oh it’s on and on and on

It goes on and on and on, Heaven and Hell

I can tell, fool, fool!

Well, if it seems to be real, it’s illusion

For every moment of truth, there’s confusion in life

Love can be seen as the answer

But nobody bleeds for the dancer

And it’s on and on, on and on and on….

They say that life’s a carousel

Spinning fast, you’ve got to ride it well

The world is full of Kings and Queens

Who blind your eyes then steal your dreams

…it’s Heaven and Hell, oh well

And they’ll tell you black is really white

The moon is just the sun at night

And when you walk in golden halls

You get to keep the gold that falls

It’s Heaven and Hell

No no fool, fool!

You got to bleed for the dancer!

Fool, fool, look for the answer!

Fool, fool, fool!
