I built the Pyramids
from the thick skin of my dead parents
carved into stones of great size
which I broke myself lifting
then outgrew my
sexy eyebrows
and gave up alternate
mushrooms
I gave you this screed
instead of my open arms
sold off our entire
collection of hope
stopped sneering
for Lent
bargained away
all our divinity remnants
for mumbled
and cheap prayers
to address the masses
when I should have been sleeping
and now butchered
and open
what is left but the meat
and essence of my faith
