CONSCIENCE
What is important in our life?
That drive that makes us strive for more than just an existence?
Is it but a reaction to our creation on the planet?
Where greed and charity exist alongside love and hate?
When happiness in peace of mind is all it takes to make a lifetime worth living.
What kind of creator would set such a challenge?
Laying us open to so many temptations whilst giving us a conscience that will not
Leave us in peace unless we obey its demand. Is the challenge life itself?
Can we survive without taking too larger bite from that apple of temptation and
Succumbing to those delights that never last?
Is life just a game that one must play?
That you might win through luck or good judgement,
Possession of skills to take each advantage,
Or by cheating, which would be so easy
Were it not for that damned, vindictive conscience.
