Consciousness, Eternity And Beyond Poem by Ulysses Cabinatan

Consciousness
Maybe it resides in our brain
Or in our gut
The brain can think
The brain can feel pain
And now my brain
Is thinking of something
My body is at the present moment
But my mind time travels
Past, present future
Eternity

Eternity
My mind is perplexed
Of what it is
Do Saint Augustine's girlfriends
Swimming in an eternal fire of sulfur
While Saint Augustine himself
Enjoying the heavenly
Songs of the seraphim and cherubim
Eternity
How eternal you are?
I don't have the answer now!
