Our Father who gave us life
and takes it away, why bother?
We invented absurd stories and
built religions with our clenched
angry fists shaking to the heavens
cursing you for cruelty. You kick
puppys and drown kittens and make
us to amuse you gods as we die in
your cancer and weak hearts and car
wrecks and broken heart suicides and
despair in war's gas showers and
no man's land waiting to be shot.
Aids, Covid, influenza, plague or
just old age thins the ****** herd.
  AMEN
