A Barrel of Monkeys

Funny I took this path, me who became so intelligent 
I'm sorry, I don't mean to laugh at being so hell bent 
I could have been a flower, a daisy, a petunia, a rose
But for it's own power this is the life a monkey chose

Some stayed fish while others sought to be an insect
Like, so as you wish, evolving to whatever you select
THEN you see the evidence by the very intelligent few
Numbers too immense for you to ever have any clue

Odds I never seen but I always knew they were true 
An argument so clean it's simpler than two plus two
The Creative Diversity alone, when the fool will admit
For now you are free, as yet your candle remains unlit 

Don't be as those fooled but do your own research
As the devil drooled knowing he has you in a lurch
There's two paths to take but there's only one road
And for those who don't wake will pay all that is owed

Romans 1:20

Thank you Funom. So often the praise is given to His creation, but not Him the Creator. He made all the originals. The diversity and intricacies are mind-boggling. And the whole thing works all by itself. Oh the Glory. God bless you Funom.
