Biggest Conspiracy Theory

Biggest Conspiracy Theory

God is the biggest conspiracy theory 
every perpetrated in human history 
because he vanishes under close query 
when I investigate the divine mystery 
to find no Star Mind in the empty sky 
except for conscious soul in my own eye. 

As Michael ponders mystery of all life 
he descends bright stairs to the living room 
where he finds his beautiful loyal wife 
nursing their first child in her fertile womb, 
so he eats breakfast and drives car to work, 
wondering where angels and demons would lurk. 

Long before humans built tall steel-beam towers 
men ruled as gods on red-brick ziggurats, 
deceiving farmers that vast cosmic powers 
assign hierarchy of their social lots 
so they obey him as voice of Sky God, 
enslaved by fate to grow food from wet sod. 

While Michael ascends to high office suite 
in elevator pulled by turning wheels 
he gazes down at people on the street, 
minds entranced by code of the Seven Seals, 
then he conducts business of companies 
that operate mall stores stocked by factories. 

God is weapon rulers wield to control 
minds of people so they obey state laws, 
so as company leader I play role 
of mortal god inspired by social cause 
to help manage food-production machine 
that binds hungry workers with money lien. 

God is Idea of the Tribal Leader 
in social role embodied by each mortal 
worshipped as incarnation of the breeder 
who evades death by leaping through hope portal 
Dream Mother opens to generate life 
so we continue new cycle of strife. 

We fight each other to control rich Earth 
based on whose creation story explains 
better weird mystery of spirit rebirth, 
how genes spark ancestral memories in brains 
which bloom into our personality 
when we accept our frail mortality. 

Because I play god to workers I hire 
I want to fund their families in safe homes, 
Michael vows as he sings in large church choir, 
then dances at midnight with moon-eyed gnomes 
who lead him to grove where Bacchus presides 
over ancient ritual of ocean tides.
