Demiurge

When Demiurge arranged chaos one day,
He did not know it would end this way:
For with order comes power and wealth,
A combination that proves bad for your health:
Whether exploiting or under the cosh.

From the very first fences and walls,
From the very first palatial halls:
To all crops: wheat, fruit, honey,
To all wealth: gold, coins, money:
Everything was made to divide

All things make small or make tall:
All things are used to make trip and fall;
Gender, race, sexuality, perceived normality,
Class, politics, human history and geography:
Everything is used to divide

When Demiurge arranged chaos one day,
He did not know it would end this way:
It seemed that (he was really) doing the world a favour,
For without order there'd be no good things either:
It's just a shame about the bad stuff.
