There was quantum nothing
And then it expanded
Infinitely in space.
There was a glob of hair
Smooshed between the vulva
Of a woman, and then gore.
Cosmic gasses were formed
Into clumps of rock; hot
Balls of gas; planets; stars.
The little infant writhed
And wriggled on the breast
Of her mother's black teat.
Comets brought water to
Our molten sphere, which cooled
And oceans birthed green life.
The child walks, and speaks
A few strange words. "Mama"
"No" and also "I want".
The star is born, a hot
Sun, and the moon cools down;
A comet makes Earth spin.
The child goes to school
To learn life's vanity.
She strives with all her peers.
The animals breed, they
Bring forth the seed after
Their kinds; sea and earth switch.
The teenager lies nude
With her male companion
Inside; they makes their kind.
Then man evolves, and wo.
They frolic, until sin
Is once known in the field.
She goes to college; where
Is her child? She strives
Among everyone else.
There is no rest in this
Story, for it is the
Ethos of modern day.
Grow old; sedentary;
She has a smiling
Face... impoverished of loved.
Mark 13:51Jesus saith unto them, Have ye understood all these things? They say unto him, Yea, Lord. 52Then said he unto them, Therefore every scribe which is instructed unto the kingdom of heaven is like unto a man that is an householder, which bringeth forth out of his treasure things new and old.
