In keeping with trending news,
I’ve decided I’m going to sue God.
It has become obvious and inarguable
that I bear no responsibility
for my own fuckups or for my trespass
on others. Someone must be blamed,
and God, who seems mostly to do
nothing at all and has the deepest
of all deep pockets and all the time
in the world, is in the frame.
I trust that God will surrender
to authorities and will be held
without bail.
