Gods at Odds



The warrior gods
Are forever at odds
Never equipoise
Wherever there is noise
Without listening

With their eyes glistening
In the eyes of who
Never knew what to do
But fight the other
Fratricidal brother

For an angry god
That may have never been
But this way again
One more ungodly odd
War that none can win

Never mind forever
Below nor above
For now or for never
In the quiet of
My heart let there be love

Let the light begin
Tonight what might come true
But I always knew
When their gods are at odds
My way out is in

It sure seems like the gods are fighting over our loyalty. That's what I'm getting a kick over watching American Gods playing out on television, just like it does in real life.
