A Brief History of Creation
or how god failed at retail
in the early megaannum
in the depths of space
before air or water
before humans were
even a thought
before form even,
god got into manufacturing
creating infrastructure
putting some pieces together
moving things around a bit
lining them up
those were big times with
much trial and error,
big bangs and no assured success.
as the millennia passed god
moved more towards the marketplace
with the hope to have a little
more control on how the goods
got distributed
opening new outlets
for the manufactured products
air was a popular item
rain and sunlight followed up
right behind in demand
and it became clear to god
that this was a good place
to be with an expanding market,
and little direct competition
when time began to get some pattern
to it and parts of the creation
started rotating, there came
new creatures competing for the
space, humans crawled up out
of the watery, dank depths
and looked for ways to corner
parts of the market leaving
god with no place
to move the goods
so god went down-market
to retail
with a line of products
that now included Love
and Respect, there
was Regard and Hope;
and there was a whole line called
Science with many new products that held
a lot of promise but
the market was saturated
and the demand was not there
for these more complicated
(some even said sophisticated)
lines.
god was at a loss of what to do
for without strong outlets, the
whole process made no sense
so god tried franchises but most
of them were not interested
in the new lines being produced
preferring instead to manufacture
their own lines in direct competition
and that is how god failed at retail.
