Gods and Goddesses
Up in the sky
If you’ve any mercy
You’d leave us to die
This world you have “gifted”
Is twisted and cruel
Am I to say thank you
For this awful cesspool?

Gods and Goddesses
I’ll take no blame
I did not consent
To your bitter game
I could ask, “what’s the point?”
But I won’t waste my breath
For even the faithful
Are rewarded with death

Gods and Goddesses
I mean to offend
With nothing but scorn
Are these words penned
I spit at your “kindness”
I curse your very names
Quite simply, *******
Leave me out of your games

Gods and Goddesses
Come and do you worst
Bring hellfire and brimstone
And Plague to this earth
I warn you, don’t cheat us
Give us this death
Unless you wish to prove
Your mercy’s bereft.

Men and Women
The time is nigh
Reject the gods
That reign on high
Their power wanes
While ours waxes strong
**** these false idols
They do not belong
I beg of you people,
Heed my own letter
Let’s show these weak gods
That we can do better
I want to thank everyone who has every taken the the time to read any of my poems. I know I’m not the best poet, so it makes my day when I see those numbers go up. This website has been a safe haven for me in some of my lowest points, and I just want to thank all of you for making this place special.
