THINGS WE KNOW OR SHOULD KNOW

 
 
 

 There will be a time when
 Wheat will be separated from chaff
 While the wheat is stored
 The chaff will be burned
 So it is with mankind
 We will hear weeping and
 The gnashing of teeth
 It will be too late
 We all have our chances
 Have learned right from wrong
 Have at least been taught or heard
 That we should be humble, not arrogant
 That it is better to serve than be served
 Give of yourself to others
 This is idealism for sure
 But a beautiful way to live
 Those who deny will live the high life
 But there is an unwritten cost for this
 Who will be the collector of the toll?
 We find out when we pass through the gate
 Until then it would be wise
 To do what we have been instructed to
 So easy and still quite difficult
 Too many distractions for the weak
 Not enough tools for the meek
 It is the fringes that they seek
 Where they will make their effort
 With or without support
 Waiting for the final report
