Long before time began,
When emptiness filled the universe
And nothingness, the whole terrain
Lived a man, his son, and his oracle
In the centre of everything and everywhere.
There was also a script,
And in the script was everything
But at its beginning was an evil.
Though the evil was avoidable,
But it must happen
For the script was a prophecy!
The man, his oracle and his son were one.
The man loved his son,
So in the script, he sought for him a bride,
And the bride was the end of the script.
But at the beginning of the script was the evil,
And the evil was a tragedy,
And the tragedy must happen.
But then, the tragedy may last forever
– though it was not meant to –
So that there would be no end,
Hence, no bride.
But the bride was the purpose of the script.
So the man spoke with his oracle in sagely tongue.
The oracle gave a solution,
And this was the only way to end the tragedy:
A sacrifice! The sacrifice of a lamb,
Before the script would begin.
The man, in pain, dropped his head
For the sacrifice was his all,
And his son was his all,
For his son was a lamb – the lamb!
But what the oracle said, must be done.
So, the man took the lamb, his son
And with his blood, put an end to the tragedy,
And purchased a redeemed bride.
But this also was a prophecy
A figure of what was to happen later in time
And this was how it happened.
Then time began, and so the story!
The beginning of which was a verse or more
Before Genesis chapter one and verse one!
