Yesterday I visited a priest, an imam, a rabbi and a pauper.
One God.
Three God.
All God.
No God.

And yet today she visited me in the form of a goat. “Baaaa” she called out and I knew it was her. I recognized the accent.

She thought it was funny and ate some grass.
We locked eyes.

The kingdom of heaven awaited me.

Black clouds enveloped the sky. Silence dominated the land.
She looked down to the floor and whispered. “Baa”
