In Control


from the ABC set Paper Basket Poetry

My god is the biggest I
there ever was
and my world revolves
around my god
there are no rules
no ten commandments
just whims and fancies
sweet yellow, pink and
chocolate brown
greedy self-gratification
a self-fulfilling prophecy
watch this space...
no don't bother.

In comfort at night
I pray to my universe
my solar plexus
for I and my own
for I shun your world
of attention seeking
orange plastic faces
My god is I
I am my god...
But my frightened heart
still jumps in panic!
