Science, a design with many motives.
Evoking and erasing thoughts and emotions
Changing how we will live tomorrow
Evasively placing new ideas into reality.
Quick to tear out old thoughts, dreams.
Allowing us to live easily
Yet stopping us from our own imagination.
Child-like fantasies and hopes broken apart
Dreams ripped right out of our hearts
Forcing us to digest the harsh truths of the world
Our bearings rearranged, undone and changed
Science makes life so simple that it’s hard
Trampling our faith and beliefs to the point of nothingness.
Left without a guiding light, only the cool, eerie calm of night
How is it possible to believe in God anymore?
The path of reason has brainwashed the faithful, tarnishing them.
Isolated insinuations icing over a warmth that flowed
A world where there won’t be questions to answer anymore,
But the one, What will you believe?*
Science, faith, both or beyond.
Assignment/collab for a class based on E.A. Poe's "Sonnet -- To Science."
