Entertaining thought
I love the concept of addressing God and then writing him off .
I've spent most of my adult life doing the same as you.
It's great fun to design one's own universe
and thn play god with your characters
Keep on trucking
Brian

    Thanks, Brian, for reviewing my poem and for your kind comments. I didn't exactly design the universe, if I did, it wouldn't have fleas or pooh. As for the characters, if we can invent them, I guess we can do away with them.
    Thanks for your thoughtful words and rating, much appreciated. Craig.

I suspect you must have a rather weird sense of humour - join the club!

It took me a little while to work out what you were actually saying here and even then the logic is a little baffling, but I like it. never been a big believer in the big fella, myself.

    I suspect you might be right about the weird sense of humour :)

    It's not meant to be an example of perfect formal logic, just a bit of fun (although to my mind, it makes a certain amount of sense). Thanks Steve for taking it as such, and for your kind review. Craig.

I live on the opposite side of the world, so the weather is quite different here. I liked your thought process here. Your poem reminds me of a quote from a movie called Easy Rider. If there was no god, it would be necessary to invent one. Thank you for posting this thought provoking poem... John

    Hi John. That is a great quote - I think the movie people pinched it from Voltaire. Thanks for your kind review, much appreciated. Craig.

Very interesting and mind challenging, in that I asked somebody if they believed in aliens. The answer was yes. Then I asked what about their god? The answer was that they have another god. I thought, "Wow! What a trip! Didn't you say there's only one god?" His answer was silence. Don't get me wrong. I love your poem. Wonderfully done! Les

    Thanks Les, for appreciating my poem. Your comments are gratefully received. If anyone asks my other half if UFOs are real she usually says "of course they are - otherwise how would the aliens get around?" :) Craig.

It sounds like you had a creative idea and had to run with it. I'm glad you did. I thought this was different and enjoyable. Love the last line 'Poof'. Well done.
