How fine
it is to be
Man.
Enjoy
Relax
Carefree
Dominant.
O How He strides so magnificently!
through the fields of his
creations!
Like a giant.
The Lord created us in His
image.
or
We created the Lord
in our image.

Machines, technology, media
All created by us.
Then they are technically created
by the Lord!
Transport, radio, sonar
We made them all,
The Lord is so mighty!
Guns, war, death
God never
protested.
Yet would he protest,
when the iron fist
of inevitability
rains down
on his subjects?
And what of his
"lesser"
creations.
In whose image are they created in?
Why?
For fun, pleasure, enjoyment?
Is this The Lord?
Are we
really
created in His image?


The author's comments:
Please do not be offended by this poem. I'm still pretty bad at writing poetry but this is the only way that I can really express myself. In this poem, my message is that Man should not abuse his fellow animals and treat them as if he is superior. If you didn't get this, please let me know how I can improve. xD :)
