What are you going to do about it?
The birds are silent; there's no one to ask.
All day long you'll squint at the gray sky.

Till they came after you with huge shears.
Flies hovered over open mouth,
Then they, too, flew off like the leaves,
The bare branches reached after them in vain.

Head bared to the first snow flake.
Till a neighbor comes to yell at you,
You're crazier than the weather, Charlie. — Charles Simic

God is eternal, and to have eternity is to have a life that is shared with God, which is the state of the saved. Those who lose out - and Maurice was very clear that we need to warn ourselves that we might lose out - cannot have anything eternal. They have cut themselves off from God and are missing eternity. The contrast is thus between those who have eternal life, the life with God, and those who may lise eternal life, life with God. — Michael Ramsey
