A Question of Heaven

I was born in a story you wouldn't believe. I was born in the back of a minivan sitting on the rails of a one track mind. I was born out of a need for gluttony. My father couldn't handle my beauty and committed himself to 50 years of tilting shining self destruction. I was born atop a mountain that was once a molehill. No one could see the rising sun for all the jutting inconsistencies of the heaving throne beneath me. I was born in and out of a wave violently caressing the coast of a chiming belltower, tulip and rose blooms ripped from their stems.
