PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

your only daughter's turning tricks
cause she's jonesin' for a fix
she just blew your mechanic
that's when you will lose your wife's
overdose was a success
humiliation was too great
now with your estate foreclosed
you will surely lose your head
was in a bad place when
you punched your supervisor in the throat
an inadvertent fatal blow
were the words your lawyer used
on the unsympathetic judge
who was having a bad day
so he threw your life away
is faith still comforting you?
i know the answer, still i ask
where is your god now?

you thought it was the Christian thing to do
breaking up that fight at school
til the gun came into play
and the sight was set on you
running was ironic cause
it was the last time you would
you wish the kid you tried to help
wouldn't laugh when he saw you
are the invisible man
no one looks you in the eye
you've become an anecdote,
the wrong place at the wrong time
the worst case scenario
the proverbial "that guy"
you never did question your faith
you flushed it with your first piss bag
that's why i have to ask
where is your god now?
