Virtual World
Beamed into this lifetime, we’re bitten, bruised and lost,
not knowing it’s a virtual world into which we’ve been tossed.
Reality a spectrum whose limits have been blurred,
how many feel their life is just a thing to be endured?
If that grand player tweaks the board a bit, adding more disaster,
might the game be over an eon or two faster?
If he adds another virus to aids and chicken pox,
If he bundles up more pieces and throws them in the box,
will Earth breathe her final breath at last, gasping, torn and weak?
Is that the master game move? Is that his final tweak?
Or will the game start over with new rules the next round?
And will the moves go smoother once new game pieces have been found?

Wow, that is great. It fits so many of the thoughts that people have that “God” or whoever they believe in is trying to depopulate our world for one reason or another. It is strange but in truth I think it is really all just a chain reaction. Who knows though?

Certainly everything that happens in life is not a consequence of our actions, but much is.
