"I have been given the choice of playing God or leaving practically everything up to chance. It is my experience that practically everything is left up to chance much of the time; men who believe in good and evil, and who believe that good should win, should watch for those moments when it is possible to play God – we should seize those moments. There won’t be may."


I once saw them
bury a man
all alone, out beneath the willow.

When I asked, "Why?"
they told me,
"you can't go to Heaven
if you kill yourself."

And for a long time
i wondered why he
didn't just wait
to go to a better place.

It's only now
that i understand-
even Hell can't be worse
than here.
