Grand scheme

Our life 

Our problems

Our worries

Our anxieties

Our goals

Our aspirations

Our life is so minuscule within time

So many kingdoms have risen and fallen

So many cities have passed

So many wrongs committed 

Time and Time again

Our greed leads to destruction pain oppression

Thus is human nature

Gods is the same and reaches out his hand to all those in need

Find peace in his word

 

You can find shelter food water in the word.

Grander Scheme

And after the heavens parted a small planet

circled a sun and humans evolved

looked up and were amazed that the sky

was so big and called it god.

.

Since the advent of language

and the concentration of thought

humans created angeks and saints

and stories to support a thousand beliefs

until a few humans believed in the son

of man and morning stars. Heaven

was a battlefield and humans

accepted free will into the world.

.

Periodically, humans wage holy wars

hoping to replace the dominant mythology

with other mythology. But the believers had bombs

and a big army and killed to preserve the faith

in full accordance with the tenants of defending

the faith.

.

And more bombs fell and the small planet

began to poison the heavens created to be beautiful

until all the people died and all they built burned

and creation celebrated their ending with volcanoes

and floods to purge history of the conceptualizations

of god concepts.
