Creation

The swirling, superheated mists
A formless shape, an energy
In silence crossed the nothingness
Its negative identity
To be transformed with passing time
Earth to be its name

This incandescent vapour cloud
Wherein the germs of life are massed
Has issued from the depths of time
The great explosion aeons past
And the heat began to dissipate
So Earth began to form

And first, there rose the boiling sea
That hissed against the glowing land
The sulphurous, choking atmosphere
That life could not withstand
And yet, from this inferno came
Man, man

The monster that creation made
The human being, now enlists
The power of the Universe
Those swirling, superheated mists
For here, creation's only fault
Its own destruction bought
