Status Updates From Love Warrior

Moments ago, God was a mother, but now God is an administrator. I was in God’s womb, but now I’m in God’s office, waiting to hear my punishment.

Eventually I begin to notice the boys noticing me. As I pass them in the hallway, I practice carrying myself in a way that announces: I am available to play the game now. And then I set myself down on the chessboard and wait to be played. As pawns inevitably do, I get picked up.
