In the beginning, chaos and confusion reigned
A spark ignited in the darkness, and with it came
The gods and the universe, powerful beings all
Each of them was a celestial body or force
There was the god of the sun, the god of the moon
The god of the winds, and the god of the earth
They each had their own domain, and worked together to create
And maintain balance in the world, a fate
The god of the sun shone bright, giving life to the land
The god of the moon shone at night, a guiding hand
The god of the winds blew strong, shaping the earth's form
The god of the earth was where clay was born
Life emerged from the sea, a diversity of form
These creatures roamed the earth, adapting to the norm
But one stood out among the rest
No claws or fangs, no armor on its chest
What set it apart was its intelligence and heart
And these strengths played a crucial part
As the creature rose to power, it took control
Emperor over all nature, ruling with a goal
To create order and prosperity, it did strive
But its rule was flawed, with corruption alive
It hoarded resources, ignoring the needs
Of the other creatures, with selfish deeds
It lorded over the land, with no remorse
Thus humanity rose, with a different course
They would enslave the gods, with their advanced mind
Forcing them to serve, their powers confined
The balance of the world disrupted once more
The gods forced to labor, their powers no more
