Gee Oh Dee

by Aaron Blair

God is the crumpled napkin
in the middle of the table,
the spilled salt spread across the surface,
the crystallized remnants of some biblical sea.
I could write a gospel on that piece of dirty paper,
gather those errant grains into a mandala,
provide this formica altar with a meaning of its own.
Instead, I toss it all over my shoulder,
give it my back, at once affirming and disavowing
everything it means to believe.
