I heard, not by myself - been told,
Or, rather, read - that Things
begun by a word - perhaps The Word -
The Universe was Spicked*.
Not started with a Starry Bang
Destroying - the Before
But just by saying - Don't know what -
But, for example,- Yo!
And what we know of today -
Stars, Light, Sea, Heavens, Hell -
Begun the circle of their flow -
Phenomena begun.
And if no Bang - then The Before
Is watching the results.
I wonder what She thinks of it?
Was it a proper start?
Was it a proper word? Forbid,
If it was wrong - the Word,
Once said, could not be set undone -
And pain to see it run.
So, if I would create this Thing,
I'd start it with a Bang
So, I shouldn’t watch what I have done -
Not good for heart and longs.
* - conscientious usage of wrong form of verb.
