“We are all atheists about most of the gods that societies have ever believed in. Some of us just go one god further.”


faded
like an old pair of jeans
that you've had so long
that you dug up a crinkled picture
which you don't remember
posing for

forgotten
like a dusty sock
underneath your bed
shoved up against the wall
and the sock doesn't even fit
anymore

torn
like the cover of a
favorite book
from your childhood
that has only two words
per page

shattered
like the piggy bank
you busted in a hurry
to go purchase
the old, faded jeans
