The power I've wielded over millenniums has wrought both good despite my constant battle with Evil. Good has created a world of marvels, growth and beauty. Evil has produced only unhappiness and suffering.

Charity, God's men preach, benfits all human souls. Complacency and sin,they argue, encourages ultimate destruction. Godliness, clean living, they claim, engenders an excellent society. Lies, murders and debauchery, they remonstrate, causes famine and floods.

But on this planet, a planet I've blessed like no other planet, Evil, always determined, is finally the victor.
Heads of State, threaten and brawl while their children suffocate in a mire of despair.

Power hungry, driven on by greed and their own successes, these depots refuse to concur whatever the consequences. So now, with one finger on the pulse of this world's very existence, I must make a terrible decision, the final decision to allow the force of Armageddon to commence its lethal destiny.

I kinda took it you were god in this...

I don't see the cause/effect between these - murder = famine etc...

I think Jennifer is ahving a wee rant against the evils of society. Can't say I blame you either

I know. Desperation. It's not my week for creative thought. Working on Flash 1 challenge in between things.
Thanks anyway.

Hi Jennifer,

Heads of State, threaten and brawl while their children suffocate in a mire of despair.

Mugabe, Afghanistan, Iraq, oh the list is endless...

A rant if ever I read one but I can't blame you either - I'm known in my family for thumping tables...

Best,
Rosie

Look I know I have been a bit dictatorial at times, but it was in everyone's best interests, what if I say sorry and promise not to do it again?

Seriously. Powerful stuff, Jennifer, you should go into politics: preferably with a machete!

Ha Ha. but thanks John. Politicians make me cringe. They'd probably send me to the Tower or an asylum.
