Small God

Small God

   By jfarrell

 

- Terry Pratchett was a genius, and his Discworld will be sorely missed -

 

What makes a god?

Belief.

My cat believes in me to feed him; and her, and the others;

Wow, not where I was expecting this to go;

Four cats believe In me;

I am god.

Their god, anyway.

 

And, you wouldn’t believe how much cleaning God has to do.

I wish I could afford a cleaner.

 

I write things you like;

“yeah! Totally agree! Spread this message!”

I write things you don’t;

“stop writing you judgemental little pri*k”;

 

 

As a god, I just grew a little bigger, a little larger,

A little more god-size

Well, my ego did anyway;

 

Please, before you claim me the messiah,

And tie me up on that cross;

Know this…

 

I will press the button;

Just to see the world burn.

As long as you understand that..

 

YES, I WILL BE YOUR GOD,

IF YOU ASK

IF ENOUGH BELIEVE
