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 something to impart 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 gift of time.

Then Amazon got a hold of it, and it was everywhere,

ricocheting like the weathers does.
