Boredom Is The Mother Of Creativity

All things vile and horrible,

All ceatures small and tall,

All nature's deadly demons,

The lord god made them all.

-

Each and every jellyfish,

Each angry wasp that stings,

He filled them full of venom,

Gave vampire bats their wings.

-

All things sick and cancerous,

All creatures which appal,

All things bad and gangrenous,

The lord God made the all.

-

Each little poison dart frog,

Each wretched sewer rat,

He gave them nasty natures,

Then smiled and said "that's that."

-

All things base and devilish,

All slippy, slimy slugs,

All creatures grim and hellish,

And smelly harmful bugs.

-

Each beastly little hornet,

Each evil tsetse fly,

He gave them vicious stingers,

So everyone might die.

-

All the pests injurious,

All animals that crawl.

All things diabolical,

The lord God made them all.

-

But man made sprays to zap them,

And traps to catch them in.

So we could maim and kill them,

Then throw them in the bin.

-

(Amen)
