"SO FAR, NO GOD"

By Keith Walter Dow

How many of you ended up with
who you were used to?

So far
no god
Has ruled against me

I am iron man, or
I often think I am, or
”Nah.”
I am just a man trying to make an impact

How many of you settled for less
than what you wanted?

So far
no god
has ruled against me

I am Spartacus, or
I am some art of his, or
”Nah.”
I am just a man who braced for impact
