one day god will come back

and he'll see all i lack

and ill hang my head low like a dog

that got caught eating food off the table,

cuz i said heaven is just a fable

n he'll tell me im a dumb, dumb mutt

dumb mutt, down on my luck

and ill say im sorry god

youre the man, im just a dog

only doing what i thought was right

i promise i truly meant no spite

but he'll see through my lies

death stare my big wet eyes

and he'll hit me on the nose

'thats not how it goes'

he says

'these days

everyone is a nonbeliever

or devout in hate of the dreamer.

every child is full of hate,

indoctrinated in my name

such a wretched fate,

with their parents only to blame.'

alt poetry account of @bagelofchaos

i write a lot about religious trauma and indoctrination. im exmormon, and hold a firm belief that mormonism, in most cases, is a cult.

i am not quite alterhuman, not quite therian, but have similar experiences and behaviors to that of those respective communities. this reflects in my poetry.

i use #poeztry to tag all of my posts and any pieces that require trigger warnings will be tagged accordingly, with cw, and tw.

welcome to my blog, i hope you enjoy my work.

i like to watch deer in the woods, as they prance

'that could be my life,' i think to myself.

if i could ease the ache in my soul, id learn their dance.

but the world tells me i shoud put it on the shelf.

its all i can do, to gaze

watch and admire through the foggy haze

while they live the life i desire so desperately

id love to leave my human body behind, lying so desolately

maybe id grow antlers, and run on thin legs, solid and hooved

rather than walk on my two down the street, where im pushed and shoved.
