I played God todayAnd it was fun!I made animals that men had never seenSo they would stop and scratch their headsInstead of scowling.I made words that men had never heardSo they would stop and stare at meInstead of running.And I made love that laughedSo men would giggle like childrenInstead of sighing.Tomorrow, perhaps, I won’t be GodAnd you will know itBecause you won’t see any three-headed catsOr bushes with bells on…I wish I could always play GodSo that lonely men could laugh!
