Megalomaniac
Gary McGee
Here is Buddha,
The only true Buddhist,
Wiggling in his fat.
A pumpkin filled with seeds.
Little bees,
Or stars lost in space.
Here is Christ,
The only true Christian,
Squirming upon the cross: nails attached.
A scarecrow spilling sin.
His plucked eye a crow luncheon.
His god is nowhere around.
Here is Mother Nature,
The only true God,
Mocking man his reason.
Her be-all-end-all is uncouth with truth.
She love-hates with neither rancor nor pity.
And creates worlds as easily as she destroys them.
