Singularity

I am a horrible person.
That is one thing I can be sure of
Because while children drown in
Seas of improbable circumstance

Mine is the hand that weighs 
The balance of time and space
The cosmic mistake
The harvest of a fruit not yet in bloom

I am a horrible person.
Damned are those who hold
Me in their heart
For I claw

And I break
And I take and take and take
And when there is nothing 
Left to give

Escape.

I am a horrible person. 

I am a horrible person?

No I am the sword
The mighty hand of God
No I am the result of a verge
Of the merge of two mighty mountains

I am the last marble to slip from
A sealed jar 
A 
Sealed 
Jar

I am a horrible person
But whose to say 
I am
The only one

Welcome to Poetry Soup. I welcome you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." God bless you.
