rav Artson warned against apikorsim
and foreign notions of what God can't do
but ends by citing Moreh Nevukhim
on what theodicy means to a Jew
Spinoza's clockwork cosmos seems a bore
celestial choirs don't need another voice
this last Creation offers so much more
along with Evil, Man's endowed with Choice
Olam haBah's presented to us all
by inner voices weighing shan't and should
Miltonic stories of a Cosmic Fall
are of no use discerning what is good
the world we live in needs both mirth and sighs
that won't be solved by theologians' lies
