I am Death.
When you were young I made you tiny puppets to play with:
Jehovah, Brahma, Jesus, Dumuzi, Shiva, Shu, Tefnut.
I have made you gods
and whenever I was near
you prayed to them.
But lately you became wiser, and a fool.
You renounced all gods.
You found me beneath the puppets.
'There is no god!' you cried.
Well, perhaps you know something I don't know?....
I am like the beasts;
I am neither benevolent nor cruel.
Like the beasts and the stones I do not pray.
Like them I know no god.
Like them I know god in every Atom of my being.
I am death.
