God

have you ever heard of progress?
figures

it's something you do to keep from
writing the same thing over and over
till it all feels like deja vu

have you ever heard of immortality?
something high up there above you?
no, you just smirk and call it
"pretentious"

well god is pretentious, i'm sure
