realities <from above their brilliance is short-lived> (Free verse) by royalflesh
here's a secret you might not know.
even god has a girlfriend.
he met her at the drugstore
i suppose, or maybe at the creator's annual ball,
where she wore some pretty red slippers.
her name is mirrorgirl.
now on this night god told his mirrorgirl
to stick around and watch the marblekids
climb back to them.
"better than a holy orgasm," he proposed.
she cuckled and doubted it.
"it'll take them about twelve infinities to get here..."
he said, "but that's only an hour to us."
god's mirrorgirl played with make-up
and laughed a little while god explained the
inconceivable ideas of emotion and despair
and love to her.
life was unconditional there,
in the great mobile in the
mississippi mud sky.
mirrorgirl didn't understand little painful emotions.
so he told her everthing about mystery and death.
he explained how the souls
would play in all the bodies
of trees and men and girls
and murderers and fools and
astronauts and dinosaurs.
and mirrorgirl began to listen with a fever.
he told her about the violet conclusion
when their glassy love-souls
would finally stick together
like a mud mosic or god-collage.
their twelve ininities of different
lives would finally attach themselves
back to him again, just so gracefully.
and they would thank him for
the beautiful experiences of
despair and death and agony.
when god looked up from his delicious vodka mumble
he saw mirror-girl
looking at him with long puddle eyes that poured.
and understanding filled his heart.
so the next day he threw mirrorgirl down,
next to jesus and hitler
and me and the marble kids.
