Ants and Giants
Insignificant God
By Alyson Pelletier Published 4 years ago • Updated 4 years ago • 1 min read

I look up and I am an ant.
Every action I take,
every word I speak in
graciousness,
maliciousness,
or indifference
has no effect in the outcome
of our insignificant existence.
I look down and I am a giant.
Every action I take,
every word I speak in
graciousness,
maliciousness,
or indifference
is an act or word of a God.
I am as insignificant as an ant,
and omnipotent as a God.
And so it goes...
this feeling of helplessness,
waiting to be crushed by the
weight of the other Gods
who don't know they are ants.
And so it goes,
this feeling of rapture
lifting me up
little by little
by my fellow ants that don't know they are Gods.
