EINSTEIN (What Say You)

EINSTEIN (What Say You)
Ricardo Antonio Garcia 

Einstein, you have witnessed the molecular 
and played a violin to soothe away the conflictions.
The black clouds you made
were never of natures design, but of your mind.
Science unbridled, and contemplations 
branded you a War machine by government proxy
and as the burning children ran
someone took the testimonial photographs, for
the aftermath came out of your expense.
Reaching deep into your pocket
the radioscopic coins shimmered in their nickel
and the dimes you tossed away
for they would eventually kill you.

Scaling the balance, brilliance against Evil
People celebrate you
but when they think of Hiroshima 
your memory no longer sparkles but dims
as this tarnishing
cannot dissipate like the rampant radiation.

Einstein, your remorse would eventually come
as you stuck a round peg in a square hole 
and succeeded with the theory of relativity.
Now-
we will amass destruction from atomic weapons
before we explore infinite space.
Releasing the gem from the Pandora’s box
we fade into the next Holocaust, Armageddon.

Faithful God, is beyond you Einstein
as you tried to find Him relentlessly in your equations.
Too perfect of a planet.
Too perfect of a Universe.

So what say you, dear Einstein?
