Mob Boss (Poetry)

God is the mob boss
nobody wants to mess with.
He has a hit man on every corner
just watching out
checking no one’s getting out of line —
and nothing goes on he doesn’t
know about —
every little thing
gets noted down
reported back immediately.

Somewhere there’s a score card
with our name on
and boxes to tick
giving all the options.
He chooses the time
the place and how.
He’s not one to be argued with
or talked around. He simply decides.
And no one sees
it coming.
