The Spider And The Atheist Poem by Chris Embrick

The Spider And The Atheist



The Atheist
was an evolutionist
refusing truth and reason
remaining trapped
in the web of
deception
illusion
delusion
confusion
all lies
spun by the Spider
who's venom
delivers the kiss of death
promises nothingness
Even the Spider
knew he did not evolve
from slippery slime
over a billion years of time
Even in Darwin's parlor
he heard the naturalist
and saw him cringe
pondering the complexities
of the human eye
and the beauty of a peacock's feathers
And knowing it only as
a theory, a suggestion
He never had the proof
to answer his own questions
And so the Spider
still crafty, wise
to this day
spins evolution's lies.

A closing thought:
Perhaps maybe after life was created, it was
allowed to evolve, the mechanisms being
DNA and natural selection.
