The Creator's Game

by Brittney Follett   Sep 3, 2007


(Yes it says funny. I kinda think it is. It's not meant for you to laugh. It's twisted. Made me giggle)

The Creator's Game

He twiddles his thumbs in boredom
"What shall I do today?" He asks.
He looks around with hopeful eyes
His eyes focus on his godly masks.

With a malevolent chuckle, he stands,
He bends and picks up the mask of love.
"Cupid today we shall have lots of fun."
Putting it on he descends from above.

A lonely boy sits by a tree
His face screwed up with frustration
"Why will no one love poor me!"
The Creator's looks around, searching

A man and a woman embrace
"I'll love you no matter what!"
They promise one another.
Creator silently walks, no he struts

He removes his bow and arrow
Takes precise aim at HIS heart
With the flight of an arrow
The promise was ripped apart.

"I will not love a girl like you!"
His "love" falls and starts to cry.
The man walks away, searching
The girl lays down, prepared to die.

The man looks over and sees the boy.
He approaches the boy, leans on the tree.
Love at first sight, how very romantic.
"You are my love, will you marry me?"

A horrified look passes over the boy's face
He quickly runs away, promises not to marry.
The man, heart-broken, lays down and dies.
The Creator, sees the fun is over, grows weary.

Two people dead, one's soul never to be complete
But who shall this awful story put to blame?
But of course, we all know this simple answer.
Obviously it's the Creator and his little Game.
