One Sentence Poems
 
A cool project is the" One Sentence Poems" run by the folks that bring us "Right Hand Pointing" and associated venues.

Check out this gem by Gail White.

There is life after death,
But that does not imply
God exists.

Paddy, you are new, so I suppose you haven't yet learned that Eratosphere doesn't permit entering one's own poems in any thread outside the criticism threads (TDE, Met, Non-met, Translation, Fiction).

So you should erase this little verse in your post above (or ask a mod to remove it), but by all means send it to the One-Sentence-Poems venue as indicated in my first post. Nothing ventured, nothing gained.

Janice, I really did not intend it as a one sentence poem at all...I apologize if you took it that way.

First, I should have stated I liked the original poem...I don't consider my reply a poem even...A rambling perhaps? Second, my reply was simply a mathematical answer to the original question asked in the poem.

Buddhists believe in reincarnation, but don't particularly believe in a "God."

The moderator, by all means can delete the post. No worries.

Cheers, and if I may add, Gail's sonnet "Confessional Poem" is one of my favorite sonnets.
