Divinity in the Mind's Eye

Not to say I am a god But what if we all were? A god or goddess of our own lives Our own destinies set out in our hands We all have our own abilities Our special things, that make us unique But what if we were all human? Each of us feeble and weak What if we were all just ducks? Or scarecrows made of straw? What if we were all pinnacles of luck? Or all quickest on the draw? This god would be one of mercy A being of pure forgiveness Never would I cast anyone aside Or settle for anything less For aren't we all worth a second chance? Just between us gods, And couldn't we all do with one do-over if all of us were clods?
