Listening

You think it necessary to lie to me
For how could I love you
Possibly
Understand how one could think a debt
Ever present
Never to be paid in full...
 
For I showed you  
A piece of the world
At the time
It was a universe
 
The guilt is but a testament  
To human loyalty
That you should owe fealty
To a dying breed
Lay bred to thee
 
YOU DO NOT NEED
(them of the cosmos, ignorant)
Owe them a single shielding
Nor love
 
You do not exist to correct their sins
You exist
To avoid
Them
Love and hate
Beginnings  
Apart
 
Yes  
 
We are human  
 
But
 
We are gods

Together

We are game makers
Betting on odds
Made by

Careless
 
Caretakers.
