What happened to the ten commandments?

With every outward manifestation

of reverence God produced a scroll of commandments

that swept away in the twinkling of an eye,

light sand would fly,

the commandments were signed

by the supreme authority,

it was his way

to form a communication from the Holy,

it was delivered that day,

it was Humanity’s perfect fit,

and almost impossible to counterfeit,

there were ten,

delivered to men,

but violated again and again,

God’s face was gravely expressionless,

the commandments glowed,

and if God was smiling inwardly nothing showed.
