The New Age folks all say it's true that life goes on for me and you Don't think it's over at the end Since when we die we start again Another time to make mistakes We get a different set of breaks sometimes they're good, sometimes they're bad depending on the life we've had And in the karmic scheme of things the shit from last time seems to cling and makes our lives a smelly mess But we don't know, so on we press to find we're paying once again Though this is now, and that was then But based on all that I've been through There's nothing left for me to do I fear no comfort's to be found I was a prick last time around

The end was funny... ^_^ The cyclic thing kinda depresses me sometimes... I'd rather for it to just stop, rather than to die and then wake up and have to do it all over again.

Love it and I hope that isn't true, but I think it is.

I don't think Karma is real. But I like your poem

You don't think karma is real, but you're a Sufi? Are you sure? Or maybe not? Do a lot of things go over your head? Or is that mentally impossible? Do you like carrots? Is big foot really in possession of abnormally large feet? Is it easier to measurea stars magnitude or an earthquakes. If you've attempted to answer any of these questions mentally, to yourself, before reaching this question, do not fret, I really am not that interested in your answers.

I knew this guy in high school. Nice guy. One of the nicest, a good hippie in the suburbs. The guy wouldn't hurt a fly if it was spitting acid on his nuts. He bought a VW bus painted in splotches of every color, thrown on. Beautiful bus. The first day he had it burned to the ground in the school parking lot, taking with it everything he needed to graduate. That's Karma.

I have a friend who is really into all that Karma stuff, but personally I'm not into karma or life after death or anything like that. Just wanted to say that your poem flowed pretty good tho.
