A Scientifically Religious Experience

A Scientifically Religious Experience While I sit in church my mind begins to wonder It passes by the alter through the walls Then reaches at great speed to cosmic places Not yet charted on the map of time Accelerated ten times faster than a light My thoughts go out there where they belong I cannot afford to buy or operate a space craft at this time My mind will have to do Three layers cover the oval silver ship The outer one deflects particles and radiation It breaks down, collapses, after penetrating The first five universes along the way The second shield consists of electron and antimatter elements To neutralize the effects of mounting speeds as I proceed Through stars, quasars, and colors multi-matter The last layer of protection on my simple ship Is made of elemental particles that holds it all together Keeps us from shrinking into the void Into the past to find real history As speeds just keep increasing It is no mystery I have to get back to my original position Finding it might be a task Will I still be there in church when I return Or will it be the past?
