God and the Ocean

And then they smashed their God into a million pieces

And from each little piece, a little paradise sprang up

And each little paradise gifted them a little song

And each little song bore them a little drop of tear

But then, the storm arrived

It took away those teardrops from them, and they were left blank.

It gathered those teardrops and crafted a new God –

it was a masterpiece in periwinkle-blue!

But they were blank.

So they came closer and closer to share their emptiness

until they became One. They became the Ocean.

And that’s how it remains today –

A periwinkle-blue masterpiece named God staring down at the sad empty Ocean.
