A Blessing // Sophia P. fuck the earth and all its creatures. fuck the brackish sea, salt and fresh together. fuck the fields, the fallow and the fertile. fuck every dog and dragonfly in equal measure. well, okay, they’re good fields. they’re good oceans. the animals have come a long way i tried my hardest on the little parts, can you see the attention I paid? but i didn’t ask for all this duty. you’re just some pottery I had the time to try and yeah, I was getting lonely but holy shit. fuck me for letting you multiply. creation was just a pastime that got out of hand so maybe it’s time to wipe the tape. I’ve cracked enough clay in the kiln not to like the sound it makes. would you mind if i stepped out for a second? just to clear my head? you wouldn’t mind if i slept on it? i need the time for a cigarette. a drawn-out boozy brunch for one. I need to hit reset, I need to rest my eyes. I’m taking my hands off the wheel, now. simply go on with your lives.
