The Rabbis tell us what the world pursues
is always its most natural course.
Although they said this to the Jews.
the whole world should their view endorse.
The world is run on auto-pilot,
so don't blame God for what goes wrong,
or Jews or Mr. Pontius Pilate,
or those who are both bad and strong.
Although it's likely that God cares
about what happens, interference
is something that He rarely dares,
disappointing his adherents
who do not realize that He
prefers to stand aside and let
the word run automatically,
not even Pilot of the jet
He flies around in, letting cherubs
determine where He's flying next.
It must annoy Him how the Arabs
have so very greatly vexed
His Chosen people, but here's what
we need to know. The universe
runs its own course. Though this is not
the best of worlds, it could be worse.
