Another stereotypical "blog post"

Huzzah, first a quiz, and now a poem that I didn't even write! Wow, is Not Noteworthy beginning to live up to its name?

Termination for Cause
James F. O’Callaghan

Sir,
I had thought the terms of our agreement
Were quite clear.
You were to provide me length of days,
Model children by a docile wife, support for same;
Keep far away all disaster man-made
Or act of your own.
And a death if not quite painless
At least sudden, without humiliation.
I in turn would confess You Creator
Of all things seen and unseen, offering customary
Praise and adoration.

Regarding line four above
Your performance has been marginal at best,
And I have now confirmation
From two physicians
Of what I must deem willful disregard
As to length of days and dying.

I therefore recognize no further obligation whatsoever
To provide the aforesaid praise, etc.
Or, indeed, to acknowledge Your existence.

Any further communication should be directed
To my counsel,
Who assures me that he knows You
from of old.
