Bernard Barclay Poet Narrative

God

A rose by any other name is still a rose 
God by any other name is still God 
science calls our creator the singularity
the singularity pushed out 

To form both space and time
the early Universe was a hot dense state 
to hot and dense to have any biological life 
the only thing that did exist was the universe itself

The photon epoch lasted for 380,000 years 
alien life and a biological God 
could not exist in that hot dense state 
Aliens could not become the first creators 

because the Universe was the only thing 
that could and did exist in that hot dense state 
the cooling universe created hydrogen 
hydrogen created stars 

Stars exploding going supernova created the dust 
which formed planets 
the only thing that existed was the universe 
the only thing that could have created life was the universe 

The complexity of DNA coding shows design 
the only thing that could create that design 
was the universe because 
the universe was the only thing that did exist 

complex coding shows design 
design shows there must be a designer 
so the universe is the only possible first designer 
every atom is a part of the universe 

every atom is a form of condensed energy 
and sub atomic particles
the chair you sit on the cup you hold 
is all created from atoms 

If God is the universe then he is every atom
E=mc2 every atom is condensed energy 
every atom is a part of the universe 
and if God is the universe then yes 

God is every where and every thing 
God is the air we breath and the warmth of the sun 
the plants and animals we eat 
and the planet we walk on 

Change the name of the Singularity 
into God and we are back to having 
a creator a God that is every where 
and in everything 

We all argue but are our arguments just over words 
Einstein believed in the God of Spinoza 
Spinoza believed nature, universe, God 
Stephen Hawking's was an Atheist

But in the end came to realise 
that the universe appeared designed 
every religion believes there was one creator 
one creator the created everything else 

Granted they all give God different names 
but perhaps they talk about the same God
Granted some religious concepts are wrong 
Atlas does not hold up the world 

The sun and the moon are not devoured 
by wolves but the name science gives the singularity 
could be just another name 
that belongs to our original creator God.
