Once around the Sun
All changed since then. That was the last day planned.
I had believed it was only in the shining small things that I might catch my reflection.
But then God dropped the world.
Smithereens.
For a few days I thought I got to decide how the continents fit together,
and could make the station clock stand still.
Some mornings I awake and feel that I still can. Hard to keep it going though.
Take it from me; it’s hard to look directly to an Angel when she’s set on maximum.
