Light and Darkness Again

by

John William McGrath III

What is the measure of a man? And why have I never heard the question, " What is the measure of a woman?" And I ask: What is the measure of a God? All valid questions, though some may disagree, a man some say can be a God, and a God die on a tree. I say that "In the beginning" or "Once upon a time" Nothing said: I think I'll make a rhyme And Something said: you know that if you do, I will have to rhyme it too.... And then what will you do? Nothing said, Well, that is quite all right, we have a lot of time. And since you speak to Nothing, it cannot be a crime. There is Nothing here so, what are you to lose... For you are something here, so I will let you chose. And so it went, on and on for an eternity, I guess poetic justice, for they made you and me. Something was the light, and nothing was the dark. Together all the forms they made, they say was just a lark. But all the forms created, developed their own life, Happiness and worlds of love....Oh yes, and even strife. My! Something said to Nothing, now look what we have done. We have responsibility, we'll have to join as ONE.. Look at all the life we made, I really like that Sun! And that earth over there, the water and the sod, when we we get togther I know they'll call us God... Then with superstition, they'll want to kill for us, all because we had some fun, and made a lot of things... I guess when you're creating, this is what it brings!
