I think God is dead.
He killed himself eons ago,
causing the Big Bang to go boom.
It makes the most sense.
After all,
being the only cosmic immortal being would get
lonely and knew that the only way to bring life
was to end His own.
It’s heroically poetic in a sense.
Giving your life up for others.
No it doesn’t explain figures
such as Jesus and his saints.
But it would explain away
how so many atrocities are acted upon
without someone inhuman getting involved.
surely a divine being would see,
the senseless deaths of His own creation,
and put a stop to it.
But there hasn’t been a stop to it.
There never will be a stop to it.
Sinless people will never not die.
God will never answer our prayers.
And there is no Queen of England.
God is dead.
But we never killed him.
