16. God's two battlefields

Earth is God’s battlefield.
Here He tries so hard
To give humanity
What He has: Perfection.
Alas, nobody knows
If ever He will succeed.

Heaven is God’s battlefield.
There He tries so hard
To give divinity
What He is: Realisation.
Alas, no soul knows
If ever He will succeed.
