New poem: "The Big Question"

 

The Big Question

 

Our modern-day truth seeker

looks online for a quick answer

to the big question of our life—

what happens to us when we die?

But AI cannot provide an answer

to the divine mystery of life, only

more data on the expanding body

of inert knowledge that grows

exponentially with every new

algorithm; and not until they get

down and dirty in the trenches

of daily living, shouldering the

responsibility for every decision,

will today’s seeker be made ready

by life to receive the answer to what

happens when we die and cross

over to the Other Side.
