My Lord

 "My Lord"



Is he dead?

No, the wind is below his head.

Underneath the bed.

Scared and hiding from the outside world.

Served exquisite Peruvian avocado salads at Machu picchu.

Food, he hasn't eaten in four thousand years.

The ace plays poker with computer chips.

Which to him seems like making shrimp dips.

Never takes business trips.

Journeys on styrofoam ships.

The deity has wide hips.

The world feeds him scraps.

Wants them to starve like he does.

Don't hold your breath.

This deity will never find out!...

Andy will never share her secrets.

She lives in my heart.
