God is correction, feedback and bifurcation

Vivacious, practical, self-directed

Mary Bailey, nice body

it makes no sense that just because George

might never have been she suddenly becomes a shy,

homely, lonely librarian without a dog or god.

No, it did not fundamentally matter

whether George was born except to his mother. Potter

might have taken over but why should the morality

of a whole community decline? As for the ship

going down, if a butterfly in China had fluttered

right instead of left 10,000 years ago

the tragedy would have been entirely averted

in fact the whole war would not have happened!

I pleasure in and treasure

my insignificance. If only

I could be overlooked

by the planning board and IRS.

One false note gives the lie

to the whole premise. God died

but was elected posthumously to the Senate

as for the Big Bang theory, when it

supposedly happened what surrounded that

golf ball of matter and now what

occupies the time beyond the farthest edge of space?

My wife over dinner laughs, says Face

it, you'll never know so stop asking questions.

That is how we must make music, mindful of our extreme

limits, our politics, our complete dependence on the theme

of God as feedback, bifurcation and correction.
