Doodling at the Margins

He gave us a blank page as syllabus he said that we could choose whatever theme we liked to fill the blue book of our lives, with just a few dull rules of cant for guide I wish He had designed us with more thought He ought to have prepared a better path, without the rocks and stones that clutter plains and, if He wanted gardens, much more rain, far fewer thorns and denser, fertile, soil to see us through long years of doubt and drought I wish He had designed us with more thought I'm saying He, but why not She or They? Perhaps, it always really was just Us At least we know there was a touch of play, What else explains the duck-billed platypus?         ,
