Pissing Off the Gods

~ Pissing Off The Gods~

A Poem by Debbie_Philly 

I wrote this while in allot of pain

I must have messed up this time
maybe I pissed off the Gods too
many times with promises of
devotion , maybe I'm not what
they want.
 
Defective,Diseased,Unsightly
 
I went into the box and asked 
for forgiveness for that sin 18
years ago, I thought I was 
pardoned sorry is always the
name. I was Sorry..... I still am
 
Maybe this is my punishment 
if its like this now will it be worse
after the lights go out , do they
just go out?
Will I get a reprieve for time and
suffering served .
 
THIS PAIN IS TOO INTENSE 
 
I'm not really sure how much 
more I can bare , truthfully
The pills you ask?? Ha Yea
well they don't work really
Can't even get a buzz to
forget for a while, yet they
dominate my life.
 
I must have pissed someone off
it's the only thing I can come up
with, what other reason for all
this PAIN , my whole life .....
 
It's building to a crescendo
that's getting ready to explode
in a big way. I feel it coming and
when it does ... DUCK....
because it's gonna be Messy
 
By: Debbie Mills Kelly
 
This is not a feel sorry for me piece...
I know alot of people suffer. Its just
what came out of my head last night
and ended up... bleeding out onto 
the paper. Thank you !!

Will Karry February 5, 2014 at 9:39 AM It bled rather well onto paper for sure. This was really great, not that I am an expert at poetry but I know when I read something and it sticks out like this means I like what I see and this struck me as something that people do go through.
