And then I stopped

God is grotesquely beautiful,
but she envies our mortality
so through war He seeks to exploit it
and war too is grotesquely beautiful
for war is alive with the fires of industry
and allowed to destroy what we alone cannot
War exploits our mortality
so our mortality is a grotesque beauty
I'm just singing corpse
it may not be much,
but it seems to piss god off.
So if god is beautiful
if war is beautiful
and if mortality is beautiful
then all who perish die as gods
grotesquely beautiful as the lie upon the pyre

    Profound

    Strangely you are onto something
    but God does not care.
    Serene indifference is God’s love.
    Warriors and peace makers come from the same womb.
    Within Nature (God) our death feeds a new universe
    but Nature only knows that it suckles a baby.

    It's very you. Except it seems more of a speech than some of your others.
