an open letter to the gods and a reaffirmation of faith: To Jove

You call yourself supreme god. You incestuous rapist. You transform yourself to commit crimes and transform others to keep them a secret. Why would anyone worship you? Fear. They have no choice. But I do not fear you.
You are not my God. And unlike Europa, Io, Leucothoe, Callisto, Semele and countless others you cannot steal my purity—my innocence.
Because my God is above all. My God’s integrity is beyond reproach. He transformed himself to repair my crimes and that is no secret. Why would I worship him? Love. “Because perfect love drives out fear.”
This is my God
