God
Invisible metaphor of everything.
Figment of our genes.
Distant relative we never had.
Impossible melancholy.
Optical effect of our minds.
Giant, hollow echo.
Long evolved shadow cascading down our double helix.
Faceless face with the eyeless eyes.
Undiscovered nothing.

The Holy Man
From a young age K. spent all his time in church.
The Bible was his colouring-in-book.
He slept on top of a tomb and hung his coat on the cross.
He ate at the alter table, pissed in the font and shat in the pews.
On Sundays he went outside to pray.
