Clowns, Butterflies, Dog Poem by Arthur Knackmus
Clowns, Butterflies, Dog
Last night, why was the Big Dipper upside down?
I think the angels through God, control the universe in my town.
Are the angels at war or just showing off being clowns?
Hebrews read backwards so God to them in English is just a hound (Dog, God)
Other clowns in my town...to call God a hound
Would be a compliment to Him, I've found.
So to them, Jesus should be gagged and bound, tied up in rope all around.
Then be put to slave labor like, like Samson going round and round.
I have found Jesus knows everyone, everybody,
and could weigh the universe to the exact pound.
Some people think they know everyone, everybody and then say the world is sound.
I have found,
Jesus knows everybody, everything and could weigh the universe to the exact pound.
Some people think they know anything and everything, then say the world is sound.
The way Jesus runs the world is by winding it up, then it is wound.
Before things happen, He can predict and synchronize sound.
God is ominiscient, omnipotent, and omnipresent, meaning
Power everthing and surround.
He has power to spare leaving you clowns down to abound.
He can think up new adjectives, verbs, or nouns,
Leading Him to define Him out in town.
You clowns never will, otherwise you would be God the hound.
Dear Arthur Knackmus, thanks for sharing. I give a 10 to your poem the reasons being the imagination, the surprising pictures, the unique approach. Believer or not the poet could write the same verses, with a light humor, and a bit of suspense to energise the pictures and send the message of His Mightiness or of our weakness Joseph Josephides Member of the International Society of Poets (ISP) Intern.Library of Poetry awarded
