Ricochet

God created evil unconsciously one day,

while distracted by an uprising in sector 8.

(Which begs the question: can any good come from an unconscious act?)

He considered it, and decided it was fortuitous.

Not malice exactly, but a vehicle for consequence.

In its original form, it was only given as a gift. (Handed down from the clergy to the clergy,)

thus, ensuring comfortable eternal

separation from mortal man.

The gift mutated given the creation of time.

Then Amazon got a hold of it,

and it was everywhere, ricocheting like the weather.
