Humans are such beautiful animals, artistic animals
They wonder and they appreciate
And as beautiful animals,
Were endowed with imagination to ideate
The ultimate beauty
All that you can be but can never be
They labored and enslaved to build the most beautiful,
Many a sanctuary
Creations that for the passing humans can only be a fantasy
Leave them in awe and wonder about reality
Almost unbelievable
Thousands of years ago
Symbols the size of mountains
Designed most artistic, the inconceivable
Façade carved out of pink stone, like magic
Erected magnificent columns and lifted beams on top of them
Without the aid of the hydraulic or the electric
Places to worship the intangible
Made them face the sun
Or watch over a running river
Or sky high on a precipice
Peak up to the clouds
And peer down over an abyss
Like Neuschwanstein
But humans were also unruly
They needed discipline and order
We could not always rely on a human being’s good will
To always do good
How to refrain the brazen when he becomes a brute
So humans designed religion as a solution
Inferno to those who don’t obey
And reward to those who follow the command of the day
And then some more intelligent humans
Were able to use this for their own power
And why can’t humans sell more religion
So new ones from old ones were to flower
Either unintentionally, a man who just preached goodness
Or intentionally,
One that wanted to instill a system of rules and principles
Politicians turned religions into polarizing systems
Are you one of them or one of us
Missionaries, conquistadores and militants
And so, what was supposed to be a solution
To curtail the problem
of the good and the evil in every human
Itself became a problem
