IF I COULD TYPE STARS INTO EXISTENCE

IF I COULD TYPE STARS INTO EXISTENCE

If I could type stars into existence
I would and maybe…
I can and am

That words are handles is obvious enough…
that they are requests and creative devices, not
so obvious

The word water, it’s said, is not water
itself

But it can be a coalescence
condensation of sorts
precursor to rain

For life wants a soundtrack,
a story, and an explanation

Who knew that God, instead of being only
an answerer, would want to be the child asking us
questions
and direction?
