If all babies are innocent, killer in the womb or not, then we are all guaranteed heaven and its supreme divinity Why not **** one at birth and transcend one to a place of eternal happiness instantaneously? Why succumb to living a life where you are bound to commit a plethora of sins? The Christians pray for long and eternal life But the longer the life, the longer the pending doom Why pass on the happiness of this life in hope of the next, then fear the death guaranteed when you took your first breath? It’s absurd You must live this life to the fullest, For your happiness no matter how subtle or grand, can turn to ashes in your mouth quicker than a man condemned can turn to religion and God For like the people of 1940 Oran, Disaster will not yield to normalcy nor wait on one’s acceptance of it It is random, to fight best against and outlast it, one must be happy now.

On Happiness.
If all babies are innocent, killer in the womb or not, then we are all guaranteed heaven and its supreme divinity Why not **** one at birth and transcend one to a place of eternal happiness instantaneously? Why succumb to living a life where you are bound to commit a plethora of sins? The Christians pray for long and eternal life But the longer the life, the longer the pending doom Why pass on the happiness of this life in hope of the next, then fear the death guaranteed when you took your first breath? It’s absurd You must live this life to the fullest, For your happiness no matter how subtle or grand, can turn to ashes in your mouth quicker than a man condemned can turn to religion and God For like the people of 1940 Oran, Disaster will not yield to normalcy nor wait on one’s acceptance of it It is random, to fight best against and outlast it, one must be happy now.
