Where the Tears Fall Like Rain

You have embarked on the physical plane

Three dimensions and rapidly going insane

What you get is a world in pain

Who knows how many will remain?

The gulf between man and God

With all this evil it seems rather odd

Some of us are talented while others plod

While others fight and die on bloody sod,

Aw, but for this physical plane

Living for the moment in the fast lane

Those obsessed by all they have to gain

At the price of the innocents they have slain,

Thought I knew what it was all for

If you did things right you could open up the door

And for all the brave souls who explored

The tourists who want to see the battleships moored,

But for the allure of the physical plane

A dimension away from a better place more sane

At times you can barely stand the strain

Sometimes it seems your efforts are all in vain,

I thought that with you I could go through time

But that was when reality dropped a dime

It seems I paid dearly for that final summit climb

Like a corpse preserved in brine,

There’s the irony of the physical plane

Forever a victim of the homo sapiens stain

Like a tower made from a corroded crane

A 3-D illusion nothing more than a corrupt domain,

You can grope forever on the slippery slope

In a fog of helplessness without any hope

Very few of us ever learn how to cope

You might ask if you’re at the end of your rope,

Out here on the physical plane

You are standing on deceptive terrain

Where the tears fall just like rain

And the criminals are no longer arraigned.
