to pray to a god who is only vengeance
who has no mercy or pity or love
who is nothing but the scum
out of which we rise up
as if this were a holy thing
a marvelous thing
a wondrous thing
as if transcending this
would have us blossom
some imaginary elsewhere
another waste of time and life
to squander the hours and minutes and seconds
just being alive
