There Can Be No Argument For M Lady Resh Bubbles Poem by ivor or ivor.e hogg

I do not know but I suspect.
That death is not as we expect.
Simply reward or punishment.

For things we failed to do or did.
No single action can be hid
Nor can our motive and intent.

Before the court to make my plea
I find the only judge is me.
I cannot plead I’m innocent

I know the things I did and why.
There is no way I can deny
The sins for which I must repent.

I was tempted and often fell
frequently the truth to tell.
Although sometimes with good intent.

I prosecute and I defend
but realise that in the end.
The laws of Karma represent.

Pure justice which applies equally
to everyman, no one is free.
Established by long precedent..

Though this lifetime you failed to learn
the only punishment you earn
You choose yourself and can’t resent.

Another life another start
you have to play another part.
You acquiesce and give consent.

A life you start with a blank sheet
your unlearned lessons to repeat.
All new born babes are innocent.
