Revelation

Am I nothing more than shedding skin The epidermis of a microbial mistake DNA strands stretched over infinite space The free flowing prose of linear evolution Winter hexagons and Summer triangles Andromeda, Perseus, & the mighty Hercules Fabled forms of coincidental constellations Names drawn by our conspiring consternation As cryptic comets blaze pastel nights Genesis hypothesized by philosophical eyes Meticulously immortalized with bound antiquity Proverbs quoted for fear of a religious ruse Decried by atheists of heliocentric hues Quantum physics validating life’s variation As agnostics attempt to eclipse indignation But for every Big Bang there is an end Autumn cannot Spring from nothing And no matter what creation portends Intelligence is relative by design
