"Omnipotent"

"Omnipotent"

He's rather quaint this, Christian god
Omniscient, he sees the bird
And if you swear you're always heard
Yet "when there's war it's; rather odd
He can do nothing, this awful god.

When fire and famine, flood and fear
Are raging, and all people sear
When want with sorrow hand in hand
Go roaming through an empty land
He doesn't seem to understand
He's always called
Omnipotent.

—R.H.
