The Ancestors' Request. Poem by Naser Arafat

Kids, you are too lucky, chaps
You people have Peter pan;
We didn't have him and perhaps
We grownups needed Iron man.
So we just invented God.

Kids when you fight for small toy cars,
You do such an innocent deed;
But our friends fought fatal wars
By virtue of humanly greed.
So we just invented God.

Kids you are too brainy guys:
By you every fraud is sensed.
But our friends were not that wise,
They could be easily tensed.
So we just invented God.

Kids but we should apologize
for we didn't know that time would cause
These beliefs to materialize.
We wanted to make some laws,
So we just invented God.

Kids we are totally whirled;
Can you make everything new?
You people can change the world
That is why we request you:
Can you just terminate God?
