#495: Beyoncé created the universe…

Beyoncé created the universe
and it was good, I tell you, it was good.
On the seventh day, She rested, of course,
but sensing that something was still amiss,
She invented The Beatles, yeah, yeah, yeah.
It was the eighth day, and there was music
of every kind and there were no lanes
and no bullshit about who could do what.
How can there be so much suffering, then,
in the world, if She made everything
this way? Some people don’t listen.
You cannot force people out of the dark.
Beyoncé gave us what we needed, right?
It’s up to us to move into the light.
