Idiot God by Tahan Jones

What were you thinking
when you endowed ape-like man
with the idea of throwing stones to kill?

Did you not know
that his descendents will perfect its deadliness
and their aim to an art form
to use to terrorize the unborn
and leave the living dead.

You never told them
that they should not throw stones in their glass house
because each time they break a glass pane
the cold air will blow in
and stop their hearts
and freeze their bodies.
