My inner cathedral of rapturous, buttery sound delights in the reddest and bluest flavors of light. Word sweet. Soul sour. Combustible proverbs delight my ears, raised as they were on the music of nature’s wisdom. Nature passed a cigarette to me at a party once. I took a puff and found it was laced with chlorophyll. I was jealous of trees for a year. In my cathedral, an altar of tourmaline and hope strung from the ceiling like diamonds. Bless this shell of paradise, Lord. Consecrate even my hair to your effervescent name.
