BEING

To think that evolution randomly
Occurred is literally absurd because,
Despite billions of years, complexity
Like ours is more than “accidental” does.

No rational calculation of the odds
Could ever lead to life and consciousness,
And yet to say the cause of this is God’s
Design personifies what’s just a guess.

A better supposition is to say
The cause of all remains a Mystery
Not likely to be solved by any way
We know, and we were best to let it be.

Yet still we cannot help but wonder how
We came to be, and how to be here now.
