```

Do you think that God

Does not want to retire?

He does want to retire!

He has time and again asked

The cosmic gods

To arrange His retirement party,

And each time the cosmic gods

Are obliged to refuse.

But the more God asks them

For this special favour,

The stronger become their hearts’

Failure-pangs

For not having transformed

Humanity’s life. ```
