Analysis of DCHDRRA ?SOEEO (ORDERED CHAOS?)
Barry Green Jr 1973 (Florida)
DCHDRRA ?SOEEO (ORDERED CHAOS?)
The evolution of a lie
Starts at a simple truth
Twisting truth on the fly
"facts" pretended "proof"
The powers of ancient earth
Are vast, mysterious, and diverse
Disowning a poor man's worth
As nothing to an uncaring universe
A universe where faith is a myth
All evidence is concealed in fear
By a science that denies God's Gift
With a lie, which is blatantly clear
A faithless universe is itself a lie
For it declares God's Glory true
It takes far more faith then have I
To forget our God as He shines through
Show me order from an explosion
Doesn't chaos and confusion always ensue?
Drop a bomb, see an ordered expulsion?
Or does destruction and chaos show through ?
What puzzle does a bomb do solve,
That an ordered life could ever appear?
Out of chaos what order could evolve
Producing this ordered world so clear?
A world ordered to the smallest degree
That life finds such a perfect home
An orbit trapped in perfect gravity
To preserve us through space we roam
An atmosphere of such a perfect mix
That all life breathes so true
So ordered that chaos is a trick
Rising up and confounding you
Imagine a world not so orderly made
Earthquakes, hurricanes, floods, and more
Not exceptions but norms that never fade
Any life, monstrosities, again or before
Stars would appear, to vanish again
Oceans boil as planets plunge into sun
The chaos and confusion wouldn't ever end
And the Big bang itself would never be done
But no, our world of order is made
Where chaos is rare, and vexes the few
Then and there but chaos will Fade
To this Creation, made by A God who is True
For Chaos is against all love or life
Our God made order for us to live
While trials come, and we have strife
Through order God brings peace to give
AMEN
