Here's some prose pretentiously and unconvincingly presented as verse:

What's It Like to be God?

Have you ever wondered
What it's like to be God?
I have.

As best I can tell, God is alone
And there is nothing else.
No other gods to talk to
Nothing to see or experience
That God does not invent.
Even time.

Unbound by cause and effect
Unrestrained by any flow of history
God dreams.
And the dreams God dreams
We and infinite others call Reality.

With the absence of time
Comes eternity
A limitless kingdom
Enduring beyond the ability of years to measure
Ruled by a King whose Will itself
Embodies the laws which cannot be broken.

No cause or effect, time or space
Constrain God
Who creates all things
Who is all things
Without exception.

That is why sometimes
I think of God
As the instantaneous and eternal explosion of all possibilities.
