Biblical Logic Poem by Johnny Noir

Biblical Logic

Rating: 4.8


Biblical logic has it that form emerged out of chaos
Before creation began and how could it be otherwise—
A creator who saw his own reflection in the deep
Mistook that reflection for another creator and started a war
With the deep was a fool but a creator nonetheless—
Or no creator at all but the creation
Fooled into thinking itself the creator,
An intelligent machine that mistook itself for life, mistook itself
For man and woman and man and woman
Have been living with that lie ever since—
So we are not men and women but shadows of the shadow,
Islands in the waters of chaos in the midst of the abyss—
Which is but one abyss among many, and how many may there be—
How many creations began before the abyss emerged from the sea,
How much chaos has there been since time began—
Woman after woman, man after man, man upon woman
And so on to infinity—
And how much more chaos will there be
Until the creator returns, until we are able to return to the sea
Of unknowing, unwilling chaos and anarchy—
Will another Archon emerge from the abyss?
Will another woman give birth to the Savior—
Will there be no more bible studies when all of the bible students
Have passed the final exam—
Biblical logic says no—
Biblical logic says the fat girls will sing like angels—
Biblical logic says the demons will have a hay day—
We will all win the prize—
The prize is nothingness—
Our creators will give us nothing—
No knowledge, not a thing, no gold, no diamond rings—
No priest will say the last rites—
Priests are demons in disguise—
No angels will descent to earth and the fat girls will rise into the sky—
Biblical logic is not knowledge
And only knowledge can give birth to anything—
There is no knowledge—
There is no creator—
There is no chaos—
There is only the abyss to which we shall return—
A shadow, a reflection on the waters of the deep
And the fat girls in the sky will cry when they plummet heavy as souls
Without end
