April's Fool Day
Yesterday, the universe was a seed at my feet. At midnight, I knelt and lifted it to my eyes. They crinkled. The left winked, the eye that is more blue than the other. I warmed the seed in my palm while my mouth filled with saliva.
Hungry as I have ever been, I smiled, kissed the seed, and swallowed it whole, as I do most things.
The sun rose, later.
This is not the end.
This is Day One.
I have created Myself.
