Eighth Day

On the eighth day, god, after working so hard

in order to relieve his tension after his revision

said, “everything looks great, it’s time to rest

and went to talk a walk through space

who would have thought that same god, upon returning

would find everything in hellish mess

and that he would become just another unemployed person

among the number that is growing yearly, nonstop?

since then, there are those who have seen him

pass alone streets

he walks as he waits patiently for someone

with whom he can at least hold a pleasent conversation

Meanwhile, this worls spins round and round

and can’t be stopped

and here below, a few manipulate us like chess pieces

I’m not the kind of idiot that lets himself be fooled

but I’am telling the truth

and even the blind man can see it

if for lack of employment or from excessive loneliness

god couldn’t stand it any more and he left for another place

it would be our ruin we would have no other choice

but to worship michael jackson, Bill clinton or tarzan

it’s more difficult to be a king without a crown

than to be more ordinary person

poor god, he dosen’t appear in magazin

he isn’t a model, or an astis, or royalty…
