Dominion Poem by Day Williams

Dominion

Rating: 2.5


God said to fill the earth and take dominion
Over it, so men harnessed nature's laws
With floating farms and coffee-powered cars,
The hoverboards and mines on asteroids,

Easy tattoo removal from the skin,
Transhuman tech, space kites, robots that draw,
Weather control and terraforming Mars,
Dyson spheres, penicillin, cyborgs, androids:

Man takes dominion over every breath,
Advances medicine to fight death's grin,
Strengthens the people, healthier each day;
But no device can soften man's hard heart.

Man can extend a life but can't crush death
To bits, because no tool can wipe out sin,
As only Jesus' blood takes sin away:
Man's saved when he submits to God's great art.
