Poetic-Verses

'' As A Species We Are So Inept ''

Why are we living who put us here?
Or is it all just an illusion,
Nothing in life is crystal clear,
That's why there's so much confusion.

The reasons for life we strive to explore,
How did it all come about?
Before the living what went before,
Are we here without any doubt?

Could our existence be all but a dream?
The truth is nobody knows,
Do we all have a soul we need to redeem?
Over this scientists still come to blows.

Intelligent humans worshipping stones,
Believing in an invisible God,
What one worships the other bemoans,
I wonder who'll be given the nod.

If space is endless how can it grow?
Yet that's what the boffins say,
We can't see very far so how can they know,
I believe it's on words they do play.

The academics all believe they are right,
Though each will tell you a different tale,
Maybe one day we will see the light,
All their theories will be to no avail.

The religious among us preach they know the truth,
They just expect us all to believe,
Getting the facts is like pulling a tooth,
Like the scientists they will lie to deceive.

To test their theory of a God you must die,
That's convenient to say the least,
If a deity in Heaven doesn't apply,
For eternity you will be deceased.

To date we know no one's ever came back,
To confirm there's another side,
Of firm evidence there's a terrible lack,
It's behind human fantasies we hide.

That is the problem with the human mind,
 living and dying we refuse to accept,
To the wonders of nature we are totally blind,
