In nothingness the universe began --
Asymmetried some 14 billion years
Ago into cascades of galaxies.
Must I defend this truth, reality?
Upon this earth, from molecules emerged
Evolving life from single cells to apes
With microscopes, who can write poetry.
Must I defend this truth, reality?
A human mind evolved, a social mind,
More instincts making actions more complex,
A plastic human nature in each mind.
Must I defend this truth, reality?
Subjective values, tradeoffs, human action,
The economic laws invariant
Creating wealth when information flows.
Must I defend this truth, reality?
When given power, guns to realize
Their wants, no one becomes a saint. They all
Protect themselves with force and rhetoric.
Must I defend this truth, reality?
The artist makes, presents what no one dreamed --
Their works cannot be planned but by themselves.
Demand is made once they supply the work.
Must I defend this truth, reality?
Creationists, intelligent designers
Must fall away in time -- they must embrace
More metaphors more true to all of life.
I pray this is the truth, reality!
