Paradox

How strange that
The more I think I can accomplish on my own,
The less I walk in omnipotence.

How funny that
The healthier I become,
The more I recognize sickness.

How odd that
Though I walk through death,
I've never been so alive.

Or is it?
Who says?

Yahweh said
The first shall be last
And the last shall be first.

Perhaps it isn't Yahweh
Who's being paradoxical here.

With whose perspective
Are we seeing the world?
