Try to See It from Their Perspective

Or, you could stop arguing the universe
Isn’t trying to tell people anything,
That rainbows, meteors, and earthquakes aren’t signs,
And go along with it like a good poet,
Weakly imagining the world as people,
Social, full of mischief and vested interests.
How frustrated the spirits and gods must be,
How frustrated the One Chief Divinity—
All that fine palaver shared with each other,
While with you they struggle to make mere wants known,
Frantically shooting stars and throwing rainbows.
