god's ego is in the details


that are between everything that is.


this spun-sphere world we call home


is cultivation for a justified god complex


and the stories of our lives


the movies that he watches over and again,


the hallowed episodes of an


all too real series he can't shut off,


because he loves every character flaw


and idiosyncracy like it were his own,


because he has nothing but time,


and they never get old.


so sun gives way to night,


and the cycle circulates


and revolves as we get older


but god remains, popcorn in hand,


watching what the next season of


life as we know it will bring,


even though he's seen it all before,


and i remain happily unaware of what happens next,


because i'll be damned


if my life is going to be a rerun.


but i have a feeling i'd watch it anyway.
