Poetry: Where are you, God?

Can you

Let down your long white beard

Like Rapunzel high up in her tower?

Why this ungodly fuss?

Please, God, tell her

When step-daddy holds me in his hugs

Or lays down on my bed,

I feel a thousand creepy, crawly bugs

From my toes to the top of my head.

    It's said God's compassionate,
    he is merciful as well,
    which begs the question,
    why would he create hell.

    It's a terrible torture,
