the poem at the end of the holy book

words of god: "Once upon a time, there was nothing.

Then, there was everything, Created by the universe

And the universe communicated, and the Universe said, and the universe made art. It
communicated through that art

Not me, but the universe itself.

I am god, the all good

And there is the Universe, the all powerful

The universe communicated through the pixels on a screen, through the words on a page,
through the actions of good and of evil

[And the universe loved, it loved!…]

[This is not about you, me, god, or the far away, this is about the farthest place you can
go]

[The universe said: “you may not understand, the true meaning of my art. But at least
try to come up with something that is close”]

And the Universe said that it loved, and that it hated.

[It destroyed, and created]

Forever, and ever

[Through the darkness]

And the light

[Forever, and ever…]

It was there for us…

[And against us…]

For every saint and “Sinner”

[Forever, and ever…]

It stood there

[At the edge of dark and light, at the edge of itself]

At the edge of whatever was and will be.

That, is the universe"
