Man

Man

Dark matter, anti matter, that was the starter
DNA, RNA to which God shall you pay homage to today?
The Creator, created man in his image
On a stage, behind a starry curtain.
In an enigmatic rage, the mirror, He did shatter
Scatter the molecules in an endless divine mind
To be reconstructed there by what you find.
Blind men grope the mystery, and dare to hope.

Elephants, plants, and meat intended for our treat
But why the fly? And why must someone, or something die?
What about Love? And what about the Dove?
“Do unto others as you would have them do unto you”
God, why doesn’t that also apply to you?

The universe has its locks,
Are they there to limit its building blocks?
So God, is that the fatal flaw
That even You must obey the law?

From where I stood, my universe died: I cried!
And God saw that it was good….
