[storytellers]
in the beginning
in the beginning
god created the heaven and earth
without form – void – darkness
and god said:

[father]
let there be

[storytellers]
light!

[father]
i woke up from a curious dream
i dreamed a perfect garden
and there were whirling shapes
and swirling sounds
and i wasn’t lonely anymore

i woke up from a wonderful dream
woke, full of energy and hunger
and now this hunger will be stilled
and my emptiness be filled
as i set about to build
my dream

let there be
let there be
morning
let there be
evening, day
let there be

let there be

[storytellers]
let there be

[father]
waters, weathers
winters, wonders

[father, storytellers]
let there be
land and

[father]
speeding comets with hearts of ice
spinning planets with rings of fire

[father, storytellers]
cosmic sparks
and quasars and quarks
and suns convulsing
pulsars pulsing

[storytellers]
let there be

[father]
let there be

[father, storytellers]
let there be

[father]
whales
snails
sharks
larks
apples trees with dappled barks
and granite mountains and flaxen plains
giant lizards with tiny brains
fluorescent fish and crescent worms
and a million bugs and trillion germs

[storytellers]
let there be

[father]
let there be

[father, storytellers]
let there be
(and god saw, it was good, it was good)
let there be, let there be

[father, spoken]
it’s not enough! it’s still not enough

[father]
there was something more in my dream
something could see it and share it
what was it, though
i only know
i wasn’t lonely anymore

there is one more thing to build
one more void that must be filled
i’ll make creatures i’ll call children
shaped like me

[father, storytellers]
let there be, let there be

[father]
something, someone
small and skinny
clawless, furless
finless, fangless

[father, storytellers]
let there be
man who can

[father]
wander over my flaxen plains
wonder up at my granite mountains
count the stars and wish for wings
and hold a tool and think of things
and search for answers he cannot see

[storytellers]
and dream of glory

[father]
and worship me

[storytellers]
let there be

[father]
let there be

[father, storytellers]
let there be
(and god saw, it was good, it was good)

[father]
let there be

[storytellers]
let there be

[father, storytellers]
let there be

[father, storytellers]
and the father breathed into his children the breath of life (let-)
and the children became living souls (there-)
and the father gave to his children a garden
and called the garden eden (be-)

storytellers and father
let there be
