    'Owed to OurSelves'...

    Seriously, I’ve been thinking about this
    whole genesis thing and there’s that part
    the one just before the start
    that says something kind of sad…

    It said that God was alone before they had
    the idea to create Us and I was glad
    to see that such a Verse was written.

    This is the part of God I can see as Human.
    Admittedly I’ve not read the book
    but I did read that page and look
    we all have our understanding
    and we read just what we need. Right?

    And I did in deed, over and again
    see how sad this God had been
    alone before there was even a When.

    ... Can you imagine?

    What might have been seen
    in the face of the waters Then
    and in the greatest effort of Love
    Imagination was created Above
    because before We could be…?
    I’m guessing…
    God had to reach inside to see
    Just and exactly, what and how
    precious We, had to be.

    Genesis

    “Mirror Mirror is the Ball….”

    Many might argue that as a spirit entity God has no feelings.. at least not as we humans understand them. Others might argue that Genesis tells us otherwise. What are we to believe?

    Hampton, I've never read the book, but just that first page. The verses I re.write Genesis in, are all I really understand. But question 1... do we believe we are 'Created in the image of'... if the answer is yes, then without doubt, god has feeling, no feeling, substance, know substance, god is indeed then, selfish, spiteful, confused, loving, wise, all and everything we see. the next question is... if God is creator, and all things are in the image of... then without doubt, we are hard on ourselves... and we owe 'god' for not seeing and for seeing and for misunderstanding and for peace... we owe it to ourselves to ask. and question what we believe... maybe what we even 'are'. that make sense?

    The quest for answers through perpetual questioning always makes sense to me.

    When power leads man towards arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the area of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses.
