So look not into God or you shall die.


Poetic justice    found in Shakespeare’s play
Dictates that those who sin must  be rebuked
The good rewarded  in remaining days
The bad   must suffer,ills not overlooked.

In real life there is no simple match
The evil may  succeed  in  violent theft
The good ask why God let their child be snatched
The bad  may trample  those  who are bereft.

We cannot  understand the human state
God is not a kindly  father   here
He is  force and fire and strength  and fate
We not children on his lap in tears.

The redness of the sun can burn our eyes
So look not into God or you shall die.
