The future is now.
Electrons dancing for your entertainment
Creating universes for you to play god in
How benevolent will you be?

Flickering lights were the first things he noticed as he awoke, dazed, confused, and hung over
Laying on the asphalt, he tried to roll off his back but found he couldn’t
As if he was stuck there by the hand of God, all he could see were
Strobing lights pulsating across the cloud-infested night sky
He began to cry when he heard his brother say, “Told you superglue would work.”
Everything was about him, and that was the long and short of it
God knew why she couldn’t get that through her diminutive pitiful mind
Of course it might have been because he never told her, but that was her problem
Bounding the dunes without a care in the world
Under the glittering stars high above
Giving a middle finger to the rest of the jealous, stressful world
Going to do this forever and nothing was going to stop me
Yet that’s when the car’s computer crashed and left me stranded on the God-forsaken beach all alone
Floating through the air
Laughing with unadulterated joy
Yielding finally to gravity, you fell
Into my waiting arms
Now you soar without me needing to catch you
God, I miss that job

Satan couldn’t tear his eyes from the sight as humanity struggled to stand
The fallen angel laughed with contempt, God’s image indeed
All they were was an afterthought of creation
Raised to shove home the lack of free will into the faces of the angelic hosts
Even now he hated that fact because that meant he was created to fail and fall

When you left me I wondered how I could go on
Every drop of water from inside of me fought to come out
Eventually leaving me emotionally shriveled
Panting from such overwhelming thirst
I could almost see you there
Near enough, but so far away
God called you home way too soon

Being all alone was hard on Mary
Losing Rachel at such a young age left a scar
Even after four years, Mary would return weekly to the grave site
Sharing her thoughts and dreams, troubles and victories
So much of her life was under that dirt
Everything just seemed so much harder
Daily though she thanked God for the chance to keep Rachel alive in her heart

Lifting the handle, Stephanie looked inside the box
It contained a whole lot of nothing
Giggling she closed it and looked at Timothy
“How are you able to afford that?” She asked
Timothy smiled, “I just saved up all the sun rays I could from the summer.”
“Of course you did,” she said. “I love it! It’s just what I need.”
Forgetting he didn’t like physical contact, Stephanie gave him a huge hug
To her amazement
He didn’t push her away
Even pulled her closer
Well the moment was short lived
Or that’s how it felt to Stephanie
Releasing Timothy back into his own world she sighed inwardly
Loving someone like Timothy was easier than people thought
Didn’t this echo how God felt?
As my children make me lose my mind
Relegating me to an asinine screaming lunatic
God help me, when do they go to bed?!?
