Our destinies are molecular
an infinitely charged clusterfuck
of singing particles
wedded to a liminal bubblebath
in which god drops the soap
and slips under to retrieve it
when she reemerges
face caked in a frothy foam beard
you laugh and laugh
god is a champagne rabies monster
you laugh and laugh
till your sides ache
and consider drowning
as a viable port to dreaming.
