Tell me.

Who, if I screamed out

would hear me

among the hierarchies of angels?


I’ve witnessed enough people out there be beasts

to know
if God truly did create us in his own image,
then God

is every bit as feral


as the things

he creates.


The author's comments:

I once heard someone say that God must be either a monster or a beast to create the human race so twisted. Nobody came when I was falling. No divinity, and no person. This poem is a testament to all the cruelty we’ve ever witness and all the griefs that went unacknowledged.
