Know That I Too

A Poem by BareFeet Queen

Angels come and go but the devils always stays and the devils never let me down.
My chest is closing,
there are mountains simultaneously forming and collapsing; it’s
beautiful and tragic.Cataclysmic. 
I am the catalyst that precipitates the catastrophe.
I read somewhere that my name means “peace” 
but i’ve never fulfilled that destiny.  
In my body is a universe that is being sucked straight into itself like
god is sucking stardust through a straw into her divine lungs.
I’m asthmatic. 
God is mouth breather.
I am nothing but a slab of meat controlled by a sentient slab of meat.
Some would call that amazing.
Some would call that a punishment.
If God is real, 
I wonder if she is as lonely as I am
