The Mind of God and Man

Gods thoughts balance galaxies with universal rules.
Man would have you believe the system is run on diesel fuel.

God  gives us oranges and all other fruits to taste.
Man gives us agent orange that lays the orchards all to waste.

God evaporates the seas into rain clouds drifting by.
Man challenges His wisdom with chemtrails in the sky.

God governs cycles melting snows to rivers to the sea.
Man  turns those water flows into streams of mercury.

The fires in the mind of God purge, replenish and restore.
The fires in the mind of men, infernos of endless war...

Though the common cold cannot be cured by the mind of man,
he thinks that one day soon, God will be under his command.
