A benevolent entity.
An eternal presence presiding over me.
A creator, watching and observing.
All knowing.

If so, then to what purpose...

The Board

Accessible rhyme is never good.
The penalty is understood?
soft titters from dark board rooms where
the businessmen paste on their hair

ignoring your face.

She sends me passive-aggressive messages,
bread crumbs leading back in time 
to where she began to feel lonely,

anxious,
neglected.
