Ex Deus

Hello God.
Hello Son.

Sorry but your death's begun.
Sorry but I had to kill.
As dead as Zeus, or Apollo Creed.
Sorry that I did not bleed
or sweat
or get drunk on water
or stroll upon it and not get wet.

Sorry God but by act of will
I acted and I chose to kill.

In the end you failed my friend.
You had a losing inning.
Over all you caused wars, you created hatred.

It's best for I and all those like me
that you just die quietly.

Goodbye God, I've passed your test.

God rest.
