No More Water
God so loved the world— but we don’t love him back, maybe don’t even believe our fleabitten selves deserve affection from a flea, let alone the Lord of Hosts. We scratch and breed like feral cats in a landfill who know life is garbage in various stages of decay and delight in the rat’s raw morsel, sheltering beneath a ziggurat of tires too bald for the cunning broker of rebuilts and retreads, as the greasy world waits for rain.
