Thoughts of Adam

There will be a day when the rainbow will not represent
The proof of God's promise, but the proof of man's sin
Man and man, woman and woman.
That day will come.
There will be a day when a clinic will be a silent place
Where secrets and unknowns are told,
When children are thought of as no one.
That day will come.
There will be a day when the tears and blood of soldiers
Will be wet with women's blood on fields of combat
Those protected, now the desecrated.
That day will come.
There will be a day when from the hardworking hands
The thousands that were rightfully received
Will be given to another, unconsecrated.
That day will come.
There will be a day when the dreams of a nation
For freedom, and for rightful praise to be cried
Will be put aside for worshiping a governmental god.
That day will come.
There will be a day when the vastness and beauty of the world
Will be but fodder for a mocking book
Speaking creatures out of muddied sod.
That day will come.
There will be a day when the sea will be more precious than a life
The regions which were always thick with ice
Will be considered melting down.
That day will come.
But now the earth is sacred and sublime,
Loveliness, goodness, purity, joy
Follow us with the footsteps of our Lord:
That day has not come, Eve.
That day has not come.
