2. Mr. J vs. UnbornBuddha - (Mr. J wins)

[Mr. J]

Father Time, Life, Death & Eternity

Time is an issue that became hasty, enigmatic, foolish & cocky.
Life circled time as if an answer would take root in the thoughts…
‘Leave! I will no longer discuss such an idea nor condone its use!’
Arguments flare nightly to the point the furnace couldn’t hold the feuds
“I’ve known the truth! And kept proper eye on those close to you
And to follow law as it was written and ignore fact is I quote ‘abuse’”
The night took a turn for the worst when an unexpected visitor intruded
“I am only basing this on the reality of man & his need for survival
The need to grow is a necessity, and to learn is more than vital..”
‘To stand the test of time, and live beyond death seems ill advised
Even with all the good that can happen, the negative will survive’
“We cannot omit the fact these creatures have the ability to reproduce
And with the natural ability to learn they could seize the clues..”
‘Be that as it may, but to learn of destruction will leave a mark long after them.
To build upon that is a blueprint and that is where ‘wrath’ begins’
‘If that happens then they are left with the choice to document action
To become wise, a force, a society of nobility if they were to avoid obvious passions’
‘Give them knowledge; if society was chaos tomorrow, knowledge is exempt!’
“In defense, the desire to learn is beyond any of our other promised attempts.”
We were born under a light, a light that guided us to all walks of life
We watched as each sprout was given the gift of life, it lived, it died…
It would give then strive. From the animals from the deepest end of the ocean
To the mountains... to the first human with their sense of emotions
Now we witness the need to learn from one’s mistakes, build a system for growth
It stands against what we once believed in, but it is a small glimpse of ‘Hope’
“Life for man will continue as planned… but his memories shall live on
I find it obscure for you to debate my very strength in this argument…’
‘It’s odd enough trying to grasp the idea that you think they deserve chances
They should be born perfect! I will take no other under any circumstances…’
“Don’t be foolish! For me to even seek your council in this was beyond reasonable
We shall proceed as Death has found fit. Welcome Eternity to do all that is redeemable”
‘I am honored. It is a blessing to carry on the lead in this quest for knowledge
For the Life of Man will be remembered beyond Death, To continue beyond Time in homage
to be taught, to understand the capabilities we have placed in their hands earnestly
they will be molded perfectly, & their footsteps will echo throughout Eternity…”
With that final statement we stood in silence under the light post where Time rested
Where Life ended, and I buried all of the hope for humanity until tonight’s message
Through the articulation of the mind they acquired the writings on the wall
Soon they will develop the ability to form speech in which will be defining them all
At last… the battle on what to do with Time is resolved
