What is it with God and curly hair?
Brown or afro? White as snow?
Where did he get his template?
If there isn’t one, how did he know?
When I see art on the museum walls
all hanging in a row
I notice which are whose
by how the paint goes.
I don’t have to get so close I see it signed
because I can spot who did it
by the grooves and by the rhymes.
Chance does not make anything.
Chance is a mirage.
If you tell me a thousand times
I’ll still not buy primordial ooze
for I see his lines.
I don’t think (if you can’t see them) you
have your glasses straight.
But I will not deride you, nor will He either,
as we wait.
Some pictures take longer for some people
to see well.
I do not know why that is,
Go ask Emmanuel.
Or the ox and ass who were
there to tell.
