and we as gods mold little dreams; pop culture fantasies, snakes and vessels that fire burns into rigid forms like we are. take the clay in front of us; this dirt between our fingertips is adam and eve, still red earth waiting for birth into silent life. and imperfection is our legacy; too clumsy hands that twist and squish, impress in mud our empty eyes, our compromised, mediocre, sculpted lines, not art but tragedy.
