I Believe
Here they stand without concession
Like east and west
Or arguments between the north and south
And judge's gavel hoisted without a sentence
The great rift about the WORD
One believes in chaos becoming order
On its own
The other believes in nothing
Becoming the something more beautiful than dust
Without a before or an after
Faith being the only closure
It is not their diametric position
That distorts the beauty here
But th eviolence that hides the fear
Of thesis to meet the antithesis
Knowing that there can be no synthesis here
No evolution
Without the creation of something
For nature to bang on like a child
A broken toy does not make a rainbow shine
But broken light ... O what beauty in it.
I am no combatant
For me the argument is only an art
Of what words we use to paint the heart
I believe there is a purpose to all things
I cannot see in an accidental moment
I believe in a great unseen
Calling us back ... after all the time we have been.
