Chapter 4: In which things are still blank…

X

Before humanity, The earth

Was greyscale, charcoal blacks,

dingy whites,

Like clothing scrubbed too often

Choppy waves, foaming spouts of

Muck,

Turbulence embodied,

Formless emptiness.

While Heaven...

the most ardent colors.

Multi-faceted jewels arrayed

Against ever-changing landscapes,

Shifting sands hardened to basalt or glass...

Material descriptions filtered for Man,

hardly encompassing our Spiritual Nirvana.

That was Heaven:

Space without space, realm with no rules,

Nothing,

And Everything,

existing together.

Angels soaring

through corners of chaos,

playing the quantum possibilities

in the Lord's palace.

That was Heaven.

Until our souls split.

The day of the cataclysm.

The day that Man began.
