Being Kurtz

I thank thee, God,
Who mad'st the flood
And did not irrigate.
Decision was extremely cute.
Repeat! Don't hesitate!
Thou madest Life in man and brute*
Now please exterminate.


* Tennyson
In Memoriam A. H. H. OBIIT MDCCCXXXIII: [Prelude]


The poem refers to the famous phrase "Exterminate all the brutes" from the novella "Heart of Darkness" by J. Conrad.
