The Gods are interlopers all.
They collect like a crust
on the cooling radiance
of the Centre.

Their time being up, they fall
as fall they must,
evaporating in the shining radiance
of the Centre.

The Gods are historical figures.
Outside of History,
they have no existence.

First there was Being,
then Becoming for Becoming’s sake.

Becoming was a bit of a mistake!
