Omnipotent

Omnipotent

A Poem by Bill O. Writes

Do you realize? I am but a figment of your fragile little imagination.

To prove me wrong would be to kill yourself. Make me up. I’m thought of as a crossing guard. I’m only remembered at times when you need a hand to hold.

Do you realize? I am but a figment of your imagination.

You are holding your own hand. To find strength in me is to find strength in yourself. You say I am found everywhere. I am found in you. One persons’ good intention can have adverse effects on another. Servants to slaves, owner to master. The rich get richer and the poor fall further below.

Do you realize? I am but a figmeNt of yOur imaginaTion.

To you I am here. I will show face only in times my brother Coincidence shows his. I am here to you, but I watch events unfold. The worst can happen, I’ll promise you it will. Here I will remain, a spectator. 

Do you realize? I am your imagination.

I was created to keep order, balance and peace, yet I am a cause of war. I hold all power, yet show none of it. Why do you insist on placing your faith in me? 

Do you realize? I am but a figment of your nation.

Will I still stand after you are gone? Many books were written of me, yet many revisions have been made. Which do you follow? Do you deny the others? Why am the one asking questions right now?

Do you realize? I am

To seek answers from me is to seek them from yourself. The loop is never-ending. You look for me, but you will never find me. You have a slight case of schizophrenia. I am merely a product of it. Reading this is simply talking to yourself.

Do you realize? I am YOU

So true, most only speak his name in times of trouble...if there is a God I doubt he's like anyone we've ever conjured in our mind's religion, hopefully he looks like Jim Caviezel, but I digress.

I do believe that what we've given the name god lives in each one of us....life, nature, we're all part of a grand plan in this omnipotent universe...really enjoyed this one Bill.
