The Return

He came back and they said he was a fake,
to see how we're getting on, for God's sake
they asked if he could turn water into wine,
when the end was coming, could he give us a sign.

Could he make us all the same colour,
speak the same language, stop fighting,
when we reach sixty five, go back to twenty five,
give all us good health so we can all stay alive.

Can we have a 'failsafe,' so we stay on track,
anyone steps out of line, then just pull them back,
limit creation, let us colonise the planets,
surely with all that, it's as good as it gets.

He said: 'No I can't - the creation has been done,'
a gasp from the disbelieving crowds, then he was gone.
