Holy Homonyms

by Michael D Nalley   Nov 14, 2009


I guess all began with a big bang
Before romance and a song bee sang
Let it be was the ejaculation
A prelude to a divine revelation

It was so peaceful before Adam's Eve
The fruit looms we do believe
Heaven must wait while passion whines
And homo erectus swings on the vines

Excuse me while I build a tower of babble
As we sometimes yeild to the power of Babel
Was that too long ago for historians to annalize
Or is it harder to communicate than we realize

Must we ascent to intelligent design
Or assent mother nature to the divine?
Are we the lords or a boarder
Of chaotic law and order

    Extremely interesting, very original. I love how you continue with the orignal concept, you don't strand off in some tyrant. My only recommendation would be to lengthen it one or two more stanzas, in order to express more in depth. Thank you

    Peace and prosperity,

    I enjoy your poetry always, its very intelligent and truthful. The flow and imagery are well done as always no surprise their. I liked how you used similar words and similar sounding words in this piece it gave it a unique style. I guess it doesn't matter what we all believe when it comes to how the world started, we were never around for it. But I'm sure it'll matter when it all ends.... great job 5/5

    "Was that too long ago for historians to annalize" Isn't that spelled analyze?
    I extremely like the title by the way, perfect choice. A very good write, second or third only to Adam's Rib of yourself. 5/5
