I A God This World.

I thought me I a cigarette,
To smoke the stress of day,
I opened the back door,
So all the smoke would blow away,

I thought me I the patio,
To stand a moment on,
But when I moved my foot to reach,
The garden it was gone,

And holding tight the door its frame,
To save me from the fall,
Beneath my feet the earth,
My house no more the earth at all!

As fast as light it travelled,
Of the world away I knew,
No longer part the earth,
My house in flight to planets new,

This frightened me to then believe,
I must be in a dream,
And all that I was looking at,
Was not as it did seem,

And so my mind to question it,
The reasons in my sleep,
Why not the world I look upon?
My home, my want to keep,

When I first married,
So young untamed,
Yet innocent and unashamed,
The life we led in love so true,
No power this world my heart pursued,

No riches there to open doors,
Just the children in our hearts applause,
The house we lived so poor yet free,
It was love its purest sent to me,

But as my life it did progress,
To better in our worlds digress,
Where comfort in the money made,
Yet never where the heart is laid,

And on and on I strived to be,
Until at last I proved to me,
A millionaire the mountain top,
But never there my greed to stop!

In all my heart and all my want,
To higher then what life was sent,
Until one day this dream its meant,
To ask me what I am?
Repent,

For all I had when naught to claim,
My wife my children riches gained,
Yet I want conquer all this world,
To beat of gravities fate me hurled,

Until one day this dream to me,
The earth I left of it be free,
To be a God mongst men and race,
No man to say I dare thee face!

And here I stand so rich so free,
The conquest made at last in me,
But the earth no longer is my home,
I a God this world but all alone.
