Solemn Poem by JJ Evendon

Solemn



There is no reason to be solemn, for Easter is near.
It's soon to be upon us and, therefore, time to cheer.
For a few, the magic has long since gone.
the joyous occasion lost like an outdated song.
Once a shining star guided three men so wise
no longer holds true of God's only given prize.
For he abandoned his son, as if he didn't care,
when nailed to a cross to die in his 32nd year
He may or may not have existed – I really can't say
for everything written in the bible, is theological anyway.
My interest stops after the first paragraph of Genesis –
a chronological account of the birth of the universe.
But, if before the big bang, God did exist,
where did he come from and, does this not contradict the laws of physics?
It's a Pandora's box that throws conflict into the air.
A box of contradictions – if you were to believe - emanated from God's lair.
To say something exists at a time when absolutely nothing existed before,
you have to be stupid to believe this – that's for sure.
Such a box contained all the ills that now beset man.
And was made by a God and unleashed by a woman.
So, if the Bible is true, and God took form of mankind,
then, he too, suffers the ills brought by Pandora and her kind.
Therefore this proves he is not perfect – and neither am I,
but I will, one day find out if he exists, when I die.
And, when a peaceful passing takes me through that pure tunnel of light,
I shall then know, for my sins, whether I had been right.
I'm just a person who's views on religion are somewhat different and bold
for I wasn't born on this earth to change the world.
The world is forever changing and that of the universe too.
It's nothing to do with God, but rather down to me and you.
