Amends

I owe you an amends
for thinking you were God-

when you are just a little ratty person
with not much taste even
to speak of.

I'm sorry.
I mistook you for someone else
with character
and supernatural powers
and a body.

My mistake.

Don't be discouraged, though.
We all could use a little sprucing up
in some department or other.
Except, of course,
for Him.
The one I mistook
you
for.
I'm so sorry.
Really  now, it's obvious to me
you two have nothing in common at all.
