MINE IS THE GLORY (The Pentateuch in Lines)

This is a poem I wrote for my Old Testament 1 (The Pentateuch) course six years ago in seminary.  The professor gave us a choice between writing a 50-page paper or an artistic presentation on Creation vs. Evolution.  Of course, I chose the easiest way out and came up with a 1-page poem.

T otal darkness, formless void, to splendor when HE said:
“Let there be light!”
H ands, never a need, for by HIS words
The earth came forth.
E ndless heavens, wonderful sights
All in six days, by my awesome GOD.

P ointless futility, this life would be
Without the eye of HIM who sees
E ve heeded the illusory lie, and Eden ceased
Yet in HIS heart, love remained.

"N ay, never shall you win!" was the word to the serpent
But to the man, a promise…
T enderly, HE fashioned history
As a seamless blueprint… of liberty.

A braham, oh how he held on!
Never a question, but submission
T hough blunders were up, plethora of gaffes
Yet HIS plans, no faux pas can thwart.

E volution, where is thy sting?
Chimp won’t thank you, though you say we’re brothers.
U ndoubtedly, SOMEONE’S been busy
This breath mirrors it … so obviously.

“C all unto ME and I will answer thee!” Said the CREATOR--
“Turn from your ways, yours is MY pardon.”
H ear, MY adam! I have set you free!
“Yours is the choice, MINE is the Glory.”
