UselessA Poem by Maxwell KellyA poem about some of my spiritual strugglesO, why have you created me Like you've forbidden me to be? And make me choose eternity, Or lifelong peace and love? But what is life worth living for If I have never kissed before And maybe never'l have done, for Your law-book would be damning me. If You'll smite me, do it now, Quickly, like an Angus cow. I am not useful to you now, Because of things ignored in me. I am cognizant of that Very, quite self-proving fact That yours is the only pact Which lets me live eternally. I know I'm only here because You fashioned Adam from the dust. But I can't help from feeling just I that I dare to disagree. Please make use of my short life, To help ease the hate and strife 'Tween those who say, "only one wife!" And those who say, "love's love!" There is not much security For those who also think like me. Everyone thinks that we're wrong. When they've not thought and listened.
