A Poem

The creatures of creation

sleep under a blanket

made of straw and stars

and softer things that

rhyme with the words

the goddess spoke to

bring them into existence.

When the play they laugh

at temporal things that

remind them of the time

of nonexistence. Perhaps

we all will someday.
