Good and Evil


Prologue

what is good
the sheer absence of evil
what is evil
a rebellion against
the Will of our creator


Act One

The first cosmic "No"
pride and malicious envy
opposed to God's plan
that creatures were to become
 more like Him than angels   



Act Two

Lucifer cast out
pure evil spite turned upon
 God's good creation
venomously seeking to
drag humanity to hell


Act Three

he contemplates his 
scheme to end God's plan for man
and defeat heaven
"what weak pathetic creatures 
and so easy to bring down" 


Act Four

"never heard a lie
so trusting of each other
not a great challenge
deceive these naive help-mates
through their innocence and love"

Act Five

The next cosmic "No"
"God didn't really mean it
think of the pleasure
we are free to chose ourselves
what could possibly happen"

Act 6


cast out of eden 
promise of a saviour
to redeem the world
hardship, toil and sin ahead
until God's plan is fulfilled   

Epilogue 

Then came history
ours written with free will 
foreseen and foretold
God's will unfolding in time
a mystery to fathom
