Death, do you have a God?

```

Death, do you have a God like me?

"Yes, I do."

Perhaps we have the same God.

"Yes, we have the same God.

But unlike me

You have two Gods."

No, never!

I have only one God,

And I pray to only one God.

"You liar!

When wild frustration

Embraces you

And untold disgrace

Dances around you,

Whom do you pray to?

To me, my child, to me.

You pray to me:

'O Death, O bountiful Death,

Do come and embrace me.

I need your immediate presence.'

You must know that

Whoever you pray to

Is your God,

Your real God.

Therefore at times

I become your God,

Your only God."

O Death, my stupid curiosity

Deeply admires your Wisdom-Reality. ```
