Divinity

what does it mean

to be divine?

is it a goal

to be immortal

to be unkillable?

or is it a curse,

death doled out

but

recieving none in return?

would eternity

help us

sort out our problems?

or only create more?

is divinity really better

than being plain old me?

i've never been divine,

and that's okay with me.

no one expects the average one

to stand up in the spotlight

and perform for a crowd,

so i slip unnoticed through the audience,

a mortal admiring

the unlucky divine.
