Good write N.
If ya had not explained, we might have ranted about PC \'men\'. (Politically Correct). lol
But I do it too. I often used \'mankind\' instead, but gotta fit in an extra pesky syllable then. Matters of major importance, these are! lol.

I too love 2 stanza pieces - punchy, sure to be read, and to the point - this is a fine example.

The God of all Creation
L. B. Mek said:
Brilliant!
you\'ve so very cleverly - outlined
the hypocrisy
in our limited scope, to comprehend
the meaning
behind the word, \'creation\'
since, we
can only perceive
the word
warped, by our fallible
perception: of Self..
alas, how?
can we ever imagine, creating anything
that\'s not imbued, at some level
by our very, Nature
to poison and fester - all
that we interact with, in existence...
\'we\'
but mere fleetingly, finite
cohorts
of such a seemingly, infinite
Chaotically aligned, universe!
(a great write
can\'t help but ponder
the many levels
you scratch, awake
into our awareness
with your poetry\'s, brevity)
thanks for choosing to share, dear poet

Striking originality. A story hardly ever told as well, told so vividly in this case. I love it!

Well it’s not about religion as such
I guess it’s start with us and then rest follows
Each drop makes an ocean but what if each drop is an ocean itself
Good one dear poet

NB, I appreciate the ambiguous, Miltonian tone and inscrutable nature of your \"one.\" Each of us is the center of the universe at each moment in space and time. Playful and tight little piece. BTW, Orchidee, we in the States say \"armor\" because our tongue is descended from the low-brow classes, not your haughty Chaucerian high style of London English! Plus we did not want to confuse the word with \"amour.\" I bet it\'s all derived from the Great Vowel Shift!

I\'m more mad (angry? not really. lol) over that \'armor\'. Who\'s these people missing out \'u\'s? Ain\'t they got no \'u\' on their keyboard?!
It\'s American spellings. You will say \'Why you UK people keep adding extra \'u\'s\'? lol.
We must know these things - they are matters of life and death - not!

Reads like the return of the leper knight. The reticent hero seeking his own solace.
