@ N — I wonder how human history would have turned out differently if we had another pair of arms and legs. LOL

@ Guy — I agree with you. It’s not possible to comprehend God. I think God is the designated excuse for many atrocities, but I think it just comes down to human nature. If God weren’t available as the excuse, something else would be.

I’m convinced that we cannot comprehend God; not only can we not comprehend God we are willing and happy to do all sorts of atrocities in the the name of God.

Forgive me. I’m being way too serious for such a fun poem.

I like it. For some reason this line from the Styx song “Crystal Ball” comes to mind:

“I wonder what tomorrow has in mind for me
Or am I even in its mind at all…”

Except for the disruption of cadence, one could substitute the word tomorrow with the word god.

I think to myself that if there is a god, what the heck was he thinking.

One example is the fact that insects got six legs, yet humans only have two legs and two arms. I think humans could make much better use of an extra pair of arms and hands than the insects make of their 3rd pair of legs.

I love the poem. Carries a sense of humour and very creative. Definitely a way of looking at God from a different perspective!

Way to go.
