Under Your Name
by Jeffrey ParrenWhen all words vanish
and the utter monstrosity
of this life's anguish
rears its hideous face
once again
the nicest of men
and also perhaps
the ones full of questions
are left to ponder.
I believe George Carlin
might have said this,
and most certainly thought it,
or maybe it was Jim Jeffries
whom said and thought
“If there is a God,
he's a fucking asshole.”
What is it?
What is
it?
What
is
it?
What is it about
man's ruthlessness
that has me convinced
that goD does not exist?
Or perhaps better yet
the fallen souls whom
react with more kindness
instead of turning into
one of those pricks
that are running
this country and world
into the ground?
For being an all-knowing
all-good floating head
you certainly are
malicious and dumb.
The good die young
while the heartless
live on to destroy
this place called “Earth”
under your name. 10/06/2011 Posted on 10/06/2011
