Chaos Theory by Henry King
3 Line Poetry Contest contest entry

When gods are at play
man must be on knees to pray
butterfly wings flap

Author Notes
As a swords and sorcery fan and reader of mythology, it seems when gods gambol, humans are their toys or victims.

The mythological gods had several aspects and their relationship with mankind varied with each of those aspects. Mankind never knew which aspect they would encounter, therefore chaos.

I am fascinated by the scientific study of chaos. The theory indicates a disturbance as light as a butterfly's wing flapping could initiate the chaos of a hurricane.
