God's support line

Let slip a cry of complaint

Try to put your heart back together 

By every law of the universe you must fail

For all that is created 

Must malfunction 

Yell all you want

God will not be bothered

And though you ask for aid

The question is basic 

Have you tried turning it off and on again?

I like the metaphoric principals of this. We pray to God in times of trial and so often it feels like he isn't receiving our phone call - how else can we reason that he continues to leave us in our silence and pain. Clever poem, enjoyed the read :)

"For all that is created must malfunction" - enjoyed this line especially

Y'know I'm not sure I'm entirely 'getting' this.
But I still quite inexplicably really like it,
and I believe after all that true poetry inspires without reason.
So well done.
