Trying To Make A Monkey Out Of Me

This is a haiku
Trying to make a monkey
Out of me and you

Who’s being unkind
When pandering all the lies
Thoughts that fossilize

No one has any
Transitional evidence
Is it common sense?

All we know is that
When we find bones in the dirt
Is it died some time

We cannot know if
It had any offspring that 
Lived because it died

Evolutionists
Confuse all the evidence
We all see in time

Assumption gumption
Has no real conjunction
It’s obscurity

Assuming also
Makes a monkey’s ass out of
Us all in the Fall

But which faith saves face
It seems there’s a commitment
Yes we all have faith

Faith in God Who saves
Or in a chance blind process
That ends in the grave

There’s no hope today
Evolution kills all grace
When God’s plan is aped

But there’s hope today
From this monkey heresy
Jesus sets us free

P.S. 
Are we nothing more
Than a monkey's uncle, or
A carbuncle's lore?

Rhetorically
That's not who you and I are
Or dust from a star

P.S.S.
Satan is the sieve 
To sift all those who believe
Jesus reprieve us

Let me ask you man
Are you an orangutan 
Sir, I don't fling so
