Birth of Bebang

Just a long free verse poem on the "town fool"

In the beginning, He saw that all was good
When He looked upon the waters
And saw the creatures’ swim and frolic
Upon the waves and well into the deep

But God was bored
So the waters swelled and lashed
upon the shores
It swallowed and yawned

And He looked upon His creation
That roamed the hills, the forest and the valleys
The trees that rose to reach the skies
And flowers that bloomed in the midday sun

But God was bored
And He made the earth shake and tremble
And mountains fall
And the soil yawned and swallowed

And he looked upon His likeness
And sent the Serpent upon Eve
And smote Job with curse upon curse
All because He was bored

Then He saw me
And God was bored
And let loose a horde of demons upon my soul
And sent the sprites to play upon my mind
All because God was bored
