Upside Down

Effect despised his allocated role.
To have to follow Cause, damn the torpedoes,
and never ever, ever in control.
Why didn't he, when choosing among credos,
pick one where he would get to be in charge?
Instead, he's stuck with playing second fiddle
and can't make a decision, small or large.
At best he's not in front but in the middle.
But he's not losing hope: turns out that quanta
tend to dismiss causality at will.
Don't like the outcome? Wishlist granting Santa
can grant you with another, and, no bill!
Causation, as they say, no correlation,
and Cause, to this Effect, is no relation.
