Pointless

Pointless

Michelangelo revealed

Adam getting the spark of life

From God in the cloudy heavens.

It wasn't life.

Adam was hoping for meaning.

“What's the point?” asks Adam.

“Here is the garden

Full of animals, birds, bugs.

There's fruit of every kind.

I got me a woman.

Yeah, you were mad when

Me and her bit the apple,

But I've come back to you

For that special spark.”

Now, notice the gap

Between Adam's finger

And his Supreme being buddy

(Or lover)

From whom or who

Which is it?

Anyway, that bearded guy.

Is he the one I see every morning

In the mirror?

Shit, I can't touch him.

“You, too?” asks Adam.
