Dream Power

A Deists Delight

By Andrew C McDonaldPublished 2 years ago • 1 min read

There are as many universes

As there be sentient beings

To perceive it

Every conscious thought a building block

Every whim a carpenter nail

Dreams, desires… mortar of creation

Together we create this reality

Together we shape it

With our hopes

With our vision

With our love

With our hate

We are the deity for which we seek…

If we can but dream with a single vision

We can create beauty… peace

Or, being apathetically human,

Ultimate destruction

The choice, the power

Bestowed at the moment of creation

Is ours
