Rating: 2.7


Together we
created constellations

placed a star
just...here.

Another...there.

Formed Orion.
The Great Bear.

Bettlejuice flowed
from our fingers.

You knelt
in prayer

golden curls
cascading over shoulders

you the perfect
cherub.

“Our Father who art
in Heaven...”

You prayed with all
the might of being

3
&
a bit.

10 packets later of day-glow stars
we had set the Universe to rights.
