Love Poem: Atheist

Atheist

I am acetylcholine
I am self-aware

I am norepinephrine 
I am energy

I am serotonin 
I am emotion

I am GABA
I am pain

I am dopamine 
I am pleasure

I am an ancestral soup
Of neurochemical harmony 

My steps are predetermined 

There are no choices
There is no truth

Faith is superfluous 
Hope is an illusion 
Love is obviated


I am
