what came first?
the father or the crown
green sleeves or eiderdown
how many times have mosquito's asked with their trousers down?
was it the grieving or the death
was it the powder or the keg
was it the kneeling down to prey ot the kneeling down to beg?
so many doubts of juice that wont stop running down my leg;
was it the hormone or the child
was it the daughter or the thief
was it the prayer of no importance or the prayer beyond belief?
was it the parting of the waves or the murder of the seas
was it the tablet for the giving or the tablet to thieve
was it the truth before the lie
was it the book before the eye
was it forty days or forty nights
was it the wet before the dry
was it the psalm before the palming off of cheap uncertainty?
was it god or was it satan?
they both look the same to me!

Intriguing questions Melvin - I wonder what the true answers are?

Duality and the questioning of where one ends and the other begins. A fun read that turns into a mental exercise and leaves ones crainial muscle sore.
