I crushed titans
like glass in my hands
and flung their remains across the sky
like confetti, set aflame.
From their corpses,
I made the stars.
I painted the skies with the blood of
beasts leviathan,
carved worlds out of
their bones,
spun gravity out of
their tendons,
and
twisted wormholes out of
their entrails.
I killed the Apollos,
reached down their throats and
ripped out fistfuls of
their breaths,
used them to burn the screams of
dying colossi,
and cast the embers asunder,
hurtling comets into the void.
I bought the oceans with Cronus’s dignity,
flooded worlds with proof of his begging.
I made the clouds with my laughter.
I swallowed a god and spat out a galaxy.
like glass in my hands
and flung their remains across the sky
like confetti, set aflame.
From their corpses,
I made the stars.
I painted the skies with the blood of
beasts leviathan,
carved worlds out of
their bones,
spun gravity out of
their tendons,
and
twisted wormholes out of
their entrails.
