Replying to a comment on:
the monster (Free verse) by oneglove
pieced together and given life
in the moment of truth, was there regret?
behind outward beauty slept a monster
there was never an intention of rebellion
no plans for the creation to leave his home
there was shelter there
sanctuary from the dangers beyond
but he took flight
and stepped into a world he could not comprehend
good intentions went awry
and a heart of love caused death
too much unknown, too little understood
when creation met creator, a conflict
they could not see eye to eye
through threats and demands
creator held firm
overall good outweighed short sighted gain
rage over took the beast
he vowed vengeance on his maker
and he turned away
alone he wandered the wilderness
in solitude he met his demise
let us turn to You, oh Father
return to our home before itâs too late
keep us safe from this world
a world You never intended us to see
amen
