Possessed with more fury than he had ever known,
the Lord screamed throughout the heavens
and commanded all to kneel and atone.
Standing in sheer defiance, the destroyer of the human race
stared down the world’s creator and shoved his fist in his face.
“All my life I have served, so many gods so many wars,
but though I am food for the gods you will choke on my corpse!”

Enraged, and seething with righteous indignation,
the Lord raised up his hands and laid waste to all creation.

Alone in darkness God vowed to begin again,
but found to his growing horror that his strength was at its end.

Welcome my friend to the only peace you’ll ever know.
You know me by many names, Time, Death, Entropy, Kali.
When we were born long ago I was weak and you were strong,
but now the tables are turned and shall be forevermore.

Blasphemy! I am God. The one who can never die.
But the more he bellowed and blustered the weaker became his cries.

Deny me. I care not of what you do.
Life is yours to do as you will, but alas you’ve spent it in fear.
All that fighting for what you believed, tell me, did you win or lose?
It makes no difference now. To me you’re all the same.

Take my hand, walk with me,
through the place we’ll forever be.
In my arms rest peacefully.
Breath your last breath into me.

Cold and dark infinity.
