God Ain't No Jockey

~God Ain't No Jockey~

 

Earth has finished 3rd again

in another race around the sun,

beaten for the five-and-a-half-billionth time

by Mercury and Venus.

 

God may be great,

and good at a lot of things,

but if He doesn't figure out

how to take His planet

to the inside rail down the final stretch

His mount will never do better than show.

3rd Planet From Finish Line

That's earth. Gripped in an eternal slot ~ it's watch tells time in billion year seconds. First in life giving distances - God was busy that day and forgot to tell us the plan. Be well and sing more ~A~
