SBHWWWWWWWWOAAAAAAAM

i feel like michael j. fox in that scene from back to the future where he plugs his guitar into a huge amp. one stroke of the guitar and he’s flying backwards. i want to do that. but i want my amp to be bigger. i want it to be as big as the planet. i want it to explode with a roar that sends gravitational waves across all of reality, ripping apart entire galaxies in its wake. the boom will be so loud that the vibrations will vaporize me into a fine mist, sending my molecules hurtling at light speeds in a thin stream, condensing and recombining in some distant part of the universe, crashing into the ocean of some distant world. maybe i’ll swim to shore, drag myself onto the beach of a small island. the only island on a planet of blue ocean, skies with stars that shine bright even during the middle of the day.

and i’d have found God on this island. he’s inches away from my face, as I collapse on the shore, coughing and spluttering. God would be about a foot tall, with leathery wings, and a head shaped like a pterodactyl. and he’d be blue, but a beautiful cobalt blue. i bet he’d kind of hop awkwardly from one foot to the other. he’d hoot and whistle, eyeing me curiously, pawing at the ground with a clawed foot. and we’d spend the rest of our days together, God and I, creating worlds and sowing the seeds of life. watching peoples evolve, learn to communicate, share farmland, start villages, invent technology, create trade, build factories, blow eachother up, and so on, in an ever descending state of entropy.

it would be beautiful.
