MOMENT

Some god is turning his gaze your way;

Be still and hope the tall grass

Is tall enough this year. Or maybe

A goddess is thinking of thinking

About you. Make no sound; perhaps

The noises of the world will divert her.

And if it’s God in one of His quantum states
Whose attention rests so heavily on you?

Brace yourself and bear it. Existence

Can’t be easy for Him either.
