Man, Nature & God

Humanity lives on
Stories
   backstories 
       plots 
          subplots
Imperfectly human
Striving for 
    perfection
        happiness
            peace
Our condition confounds
Tragedies and horrors lay waste
    Terrorist acts
        all intended, all unjust
   War acts
         some intended, some not
         some just, some not
   Accident acts
       all unintended, all just
Afterwards only
    Forgiveness
        from God—always
        from Man—sometimes
        from Nature—never.
