THE INVISIBLE FORCE

For Aban

By Tikum Mbah Azonga

Isn't God powerful enough to end suffering?
Or is his omnipotence only a semblance?
Otherwise, why must mankind suffer thus
Everyday, everywhere and everybody?
And he watches, says nothing and does nothing?

But I know my God is overpowering and overarching
He made all the elements that are substance
Today, we weigh, mix, balance and analye without fuss
We combine genetics with biochemistry to make nobody somebody.
At any time, he can ask us what's in the offing.
