In the aeons of time
Who are we? What are we? Where are we?
Fragments, specks, atoms?
What should we believe?
In some FORCE, we term "God"?
And --
IN whom, or what earthy representative of HIM
Should we place our TRUST?
BUDDHA, JESUS, MOHAMMED? or
Is all of it
Some FIGMENT of our imagination?
Remember it well--
BELIEF CAN KILL,
And in the Name of God, Allah, The Almighty --
They slay and we may slay our neighbor!
