A Different Man

Once there was a God,

And once there was a fire,

God looked upon the fire,

Burning and searing,

And then there was a Man, who yelped,

“O God! Help! There is a fire!

God cried,

“Let there be water”, He said,

And Man received water,

But the man complained,

“O Lord, you are merciful,”

“But what good will water do? ”

“The fire belongs to a different Man,”

“A vile Man,”

“A foreign Man,”

“I want fire too!” 

God laughed,

And then all Men received fire.
