Not the Gardener Original Bubbles

by Rachel Michelle Collier

GOD THE FATHER
Original. Imagine the smiley-face before it was a face.
A white-hot, never-ending light who laughs
outside of lines, outside of dots, outside of time.

GOD THE SON
Not the gardener—! A cute lamb with a fearsome roar!
Copycat! Curtain ripper! Alphabet!

GOD THE SPIRIT
Bubbles: see-through, with a sheen; yet shadowless.
And pickles. And very close, like a glass vase
near an elbow in a tight space.
