Man a system of the Divine

man is just a system of God
the image he breathes into
that since has been blessed
wiith a stake in the heavens

man is a spiritual side of God
carrying an earthy facade
- well he is made of dust -
that refuses to set his spirit free

man is just a system of God
who wishes to take him up
to him with the dignity of a
God made - one who has
left behind the the animal in him

man is just a system of God
for when the Almighty fumes
he can easily feel his Spirit
distancing from him, his mind
wondering whereforth he has
done wrong, or whereforth
his love ones have gone wrong
