Path to Heaven

Oh, my God!
I pray to you;
I propitiate;
I prostrate before you.
The God will take me to heaven,
I am taught by the religion.

Don’t be a fool!
Eat and drink;
Live and flirt
All the time with mirth.
That itself is worth
Like living in Heaven.
Wisdom may teach you.

Religions promise you Heaven,
Wisdom brings you Heaven.
