Idle thoughts
 
Chaos ruled the nothingness.
Only potentiality
 existed in the timelessness
The universe was yet to be.
 
We cannot know the primal cause
which overcame the entropy.
Forced it to take a different course.
It must remain a mystery.
 
From nothing came reality
A fully orchestrated plan
Which could not happen possibly.
So says the finite mind of man.
 
So we build up hypotheses
 and legends trying to explain
Rejecting others theories
Though there is nothing we can gain.
 
Arguments based on ignorance
 are bandied freely to and fro.
If we found the truth by chance
 it’s probable we would not know.
 
We know the universe exists.
We can’t deny the evidence
 and yet the legends still persist
Though logically they make no sense.
 
Did God create the universe
 and if so who created God
I do not wish to seem perverse
 but I confess I find it odd.
 
Why is that mankind pursues
 this useless quest obsessively.
I think the questions too abstruse
For us to view objectively.
 
I just accept the way things are
Which seems the wisest course to me
 and hasn’t troubled me so far
But then perhaps I’m just lazy.

Wonderfully vivid. The content was great..the end.."but then perhaps I'm just lazy" was brilliant in contrast to the subject matter.
