In what seemed a time interminable
   This is how the world 'beginned'.

   Had the start and no sin.

If you stumble around darkness,

                     It can be quite harmless.

In tints of Eden, sketches,
We was completely liquid.

Shadows but happier
  Completely innocent.  We was.

We hadn't learnt to spell or think.

To be precise we 'knowed' nothing.

    Hadn't put pen to ink

       Or even tried to think.

Space, collision
Two people in conversation.
   A big bang,

        Quite a picnic.

   And what of the budded stem?  Gravity?
All things to all men.


Until the sun cames up

And everything was bright.

And all the loving I could ever have
             In one night

Came from the dollar's

                             light.
