[Newspoetry] Creation and Determination

After it is seen that a Thing is,
It seems to be quite necessary,
Especially, when it is desirable;
Essentially frivolous, when not.

A War happens for no reason,
Except in rigid set of choices,
But never dispositive causes;
Man chooses as if god decides.

Those who desire it most to be
Become convicts of necessity;
Those who judge it otherwise
Utter innocent implausibility.

Creation Science has choices:
To see the Created as a Past,
There-then to here-now pathos --
Every given must-be-have-been.

Or, we may see incompletion:
Everything happens but once;
Ever unique, quite novel anew;
Process expresses our Living.

No poetry is pre-determined;
What will make us sing along?
That we have ideas for a song,
And seek out words to sing it.
