Origin philosophy
GIDRAF MWANGI 1992 (Murang'a)
Whence did we come from?
The sophisticated humans
The enigmous animals
The tranquiline plants
The inanimate rocks
The flowing water
The invisible air
A magical supernatural creator
A spontaneous bang
An eternal loop
Whom do we owe the honor?
And what’s the point of it?
The world in its totality
The animate and inanimate
To furnish the world template
Or to fulfill a higher calling
And why the ubiquitous chaos?
And the suffering abound
An orderly chaos system
Or chaotic orderliness one
Why the secrecy most of all
Of whom we are
Where we come from
Or what we are made from
A divine conspiracy?
Or.. cosmos humor?
What are we?
And why?
