When the Omnipotent Towards the Earth Looks

When The Omnipotent towards the earth looks,
He cannot that despair suppress.
From silver eyes fall the tears
Far greater than King Lear's,
For he cannot believe if by his hand
He, in five days, molded that land
And on the sixth placed in it man,
To lord over both day and night-
The animals and all the earth.
Now, when The Omnipotent towards the earth looks,
He finds Man wielding that darkness against his brother.
