The God of all Creation

Nicholas Browning

Beneath decrepit realms and turf,

The sickly, and the fair. 

Above, waves of sound entranced

And what trembles through their air. 

 

Marred, a desperate fulcrum, 

The verse their hearts decide.

Armor and shield - its night pled-bright,

Its sorrow that will remind. 

 

All that ever is upon

And all that ever truly was,

Of all things ever meant to be;

I, am the one.

    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!

    • Nicholas Browning

      I'm made too xD I can never tell which one to use. I might just die at this rate lol

      • orchidee

        But we (in UK anyway) miss out some u's. We write 'humour', and 'humorous', but not 'humourous'. Can't we make up our minds?! lol. Notice that extra 'u' slipping away in 'humorous'?

        • Nicholas Browning

          I made a spelling mistake in the first reply but we're going to pretend it never happened. And yeah that u did just make a swift exit didn't it lmao

          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!

          • Nicholas Browning

            Well thank you for your insight Jarcher, I most definitely appreciate it. And yeah, English is complicated enough with one word meaning 90 different things, lol.

            And I'm an atheist - love the write - great use of words.

            • Nicholas Browning

              A visit from you always puts a smile on my face. Apologies for being away for so long. Thanks for the kind words Michael.

              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

              • Nicholas Browning

                Thank you very much spill. And I suppose it depends on the size of the tank that the droplet goes into. Some droplets think they're oceans, and some oceans must think themselves droplets.

                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

                • Nicholas Browning

                  I'm very pleased that you took away what you did from this piece. It's things like this that inspire me to write. I'm glad you enjoyed, and thank you for the kind words, L.B.

                • Caring dove

                  Some people like to think they are superior and above … don’t they , but it’s not true .

                  A good writing )

                  • Nicholas Browning

                    And some people will only ever know their own. It's another mystery lol.
                    Thanks for the visit :3

                    • Caring dove

                      What do you mean ? That’s ok )

                      • Nicholas Browning

                        I think I was tired when I sent that lol. "Some people will only ever know their own little world." Big fish, small pond.

                        • Caring dove

                          Like being in a bubble of their own … and not seeing outside of it ?

                          • Nicholas Browning

                            Yeah, pretty much like that. I was that way once.

                            • Caring dove

                              I probably have too .

                              • Caring dove

                                But some people actually think they are above others … I wander why they might feel that way

                                • Nicholas Browning

                                  I'm not too sure, maybe because they can't live any other way?
