Heroes without villains

Does every hero have an antagonist?
Does every god have the same?
Do some heroes look through stone walls?
Reading horoscopes before saving the day
Do some gods practice voodoo?
Pushing pins into human beings
Did we build them up with skills?
We wished we could obtain

Picture a world with heroes without villains
Gods without antagonistic protagonists
Stonewalls are boundaries to a land title
Voodoo is a song about dancing in the sand
Humans not being some bodies play thing
A place where everyone has ocean view

Does every hero have to have an evil twin?
Does every god have to have the same?
Do some heroes have heroes of their own?
Do some gods believe they have fathers and mothers too?

A world without heroes
And gods without faults
A place without pain and sorrow
A stone house on beach near Spain
That we can save for tomorrow
And live without shame
Sit and wish everyone had the same
Where memories brought smiles
A place near tomorrow
And gods had heroes
And mothers and fathers too
Where they can build us up with skills
They wish they could obtain

Ah yes! We need doppelgangers to recognize the good and joy in our lives -- to recognize that house on a beach in Spain is more than a house on a beach in Spain. And what is good without evil; what is love without hate; what is war without peace? I shall tell you what -- VANILLA.

Is the poem about whether god made us is his image or did man make god in his image? That and is there an Omnipresent god with faults like desires, feeling, shame and needs? Perhaps god has doppelgänger twin who takes care of all hells deeds.
