Creator Deity

A creator deity or creator god (often called the Creator) is a deity responsible for the creation of the world (cosmos or universe). In monotheism, the single God is often also the creator deity, while polytheistic traditions may or may not have creator deities. A number of monolatristic traditions separate a secondary creator from a primary transcendent being, identified as a primary creator.

    Man disavows, the Deity disowns me.
    Hell might afford my miseries a shelter;

    Bolted against me.
