Genesis to Revelations


In the beginning, There was a God for all A fierce parent Loving and righteous. But men bent him In their own image- A lily-white God with blond hair Fair and beautiful And biased. This shallow being Forgot his other Children Forsaking them To serve darker purposes. God can never stay stagnant, though. The fair image could never linger As men grew, matured, And learned- that God has no true race. He is us ALL.
