Hands emerging out of primordial soup
Winged creatures staging a cosmic coup
Fire gurgling from within a rushing ocean
Thoughts bouncing around, disordered motion
Disorganized speech booming the heavenly darkness
Beings of electric fumes in existence without redress
Violence the order of the day, chaos everywhere
Reason enslaved on a Bizarro planet in heart of nowhere
Such is the emergence of organized thought
Such is the page that Yehoshua wrote
Lightning streaking frantically through the heavens
Angels of spectre elevating in the air, there are seven
Trumpets blaring in an ethereal medium, without sound
Temples erected sparsely without meaning to be found
Molecules of thought re-arranging in broken language
Atoms of speech re-organizing in a world of rage
Reason awakens, comes and goes, lives and dies sparingly
From scattered remains life seems to arise amazingly
Finally from the darkness of the void is existence
Light crackles as lightning, Yehoshua without essence
Supposedly, even chaos has its own ending
Something must exist, Reason has a beginning,
In this reality.
Your first 8 lines are just a list of individual, unassociated items with nary a verb in site. If you strip the modification your first 8 lines read like this:
hands
creatures
fire
thoughts
speech
beings
violence, chaos
reason
Does that read like a cogent poem? No. well, then modifying those nouns to all end will not make it better, it will make it worse. Unfortunately, it does not get better and, this being novice, I don't have the heart or the stomach to continue.
i suggest you try re-writing this using sentences and as little modification as possible.
