Man invented Zeus,

An old, white male with a beard,

Who knows everything,

Who does us favours,

And makes us happy,

For free.


Then, man invented God,

An old, white male with a beard,

Who knows everything,

Who does us favours,

Who makes us happy,

For free.


Then, man invented Santa Claus,

An old, white male with a beard,

Who knows everything,

Who gives us presents,

Who makes us happy,

For a fee.


Then, man invented The President,

An old, white male,

Who knows everything.

No beard.

No favours.

No presents.

No happy.

Just the fee.


Who's next?


Man urgently needs a better imagination.
