we did horrible things
and god had enough of it
and drowned us.
then we built big things
without any meaning
just because we could.
and god punished us
by dividing us with
nations and languages.
then god sent his son
to teach us in arameic
and we killed him quickly.
we wrote his teaching in greek
and wrongly translated it
to all the other languages.
and ever since
we have been killing each other
over what he said.
