Deicide

'cause some of us have had enough of this hell
some search heaven for redemption
and she too
but more for being disgusted
and when she up there arrived
stabbed to death the deity
and on the way down she smiles
in the ecstasy of having avenged
the human race and all its offspring
condemning to finitude
who has not condemned us to eternity.

(chuckling) I like this very much, Marco. Sometimes I feel like she did, but I wouldn't have the courage. I did notice that after the deed "on the way down she smiles." Good writing, my friend.
