Tell Me

 

Were you to tell me

"If you're on the Four-Twenty-Seven it's moving well"

Would that mean that since I'm not, it isn't?

 

Were you to tell me

"If you read an hour a night, this light bulb will last thirty years"

Would that mean that since I don't, it won't?

 

Were you to tell me

“If youre doing this one thing then youre doing great”

Would that mean that if Im doing more, Im not?

 

Were you to tell me

"If you're trying to prove the existence of God, you can't"

Would that mean that since I couldn't, He isnt?

 

The first three are mere logical conundrums

But that one, that last one is different

That last one is terrifyingly impossible start to end

 

First terrifying impossibility

Should I prove God when He's so abundantly obvious

If you can't believe Him, why would you believe me?

 

Next terrifying impossibility

Could I disprove God then I may as well be dead

If He is not then whatever is the point?

 

And the last terrifying impossibility

Could I prove God I may as well also be dead

If He needs me then is He not too small?
