1 The creator
leaves no chance
5 All to ego
do enhance
1 Planning
that creation fail
1 That all may
repairs hail
5 The child
who sick does die
5 No need to
inquire why
1 Slaughter
of innocents
1 To
creator’s will bent
2 Cruel acts
to man by man
5 The essence
of the plan
1 A feature
not a bug
2 That you
misery hug
