In other words, Kraybill focuses on the elements of the Kingdom of Heaven, and how it is truly an upside-down place of euphoria. The Upside-down Kingdom told through Kraybill’s text, accommodates all cultures with a surprising

We’ve been living a lie for over five hundred years now.  In 1492 Christopher Columbus set sail for India and in the process presented the concept of a round world. I even believed it, up until now. In reality the world is flat, despite everything they tell you in grade school. Recent years have transformed the spherica shape we once knew to a completely horizontal and level playing field.  Part of this drastic change stems from the technology boom, allowing all countries to be in constant communication

In this poem, the poet describes a contemporary war which was more intense than those in the old days and the hopelessness for soldiers to come back from the war. When the speaker got the news that his friend, who saw service in that war, was coming back, he was then in an emotional conflict between the eagerness to see his friend returning from the war and the worry about if his friend was still alive or not because he understood the cruelty of the war. A possible theme of this poem is the senselessness

always providing. A way that nature provided for Wang Lung was, "And in the field the wheat seed sprouted and pushed delicate spears of wet green above the delicate brown Earth" (pg, 43).
