745. When I was a prophet

When I was a prophet
I made four
Proud prophecies:

I shall have to touch
The feet of man.
I shall have to treasure
The dust of his feet.
I shall have to destroy myself
To grant man a new life.
I shall have to transform him
Into tomorrow’s God.

My prophecies are coming true.
At least,
So I think.
