Lesser Gods

Lesser gods, dressed in mortal boxes, have the power to build a utopia. Their choices, have built a hell, instead. Human error; ego-driven, horse powered engines. slaughter civilizations; now the universe. Lesser gods, don’t think; they just do. Lesser gods, grand creations, that they seen; fail their source and themselves. Consequence is an all too alien concept, that they choose to ignore. Godlike perfection is their delusion.

Consequence is an insignificant delusion
