I Thought I Saw God

My eyes closed, and my mind froze, while my heartbeat rose. And the heavens yawned and roared, and it felt very close. Wow! So clearly, I could see the womb of the sky, carrying God in it's moon, and spreading the clouds with a sliver spoon. I remained so numb and lost, and floated through frost. For no cost, I was sold to cold. And I grew very old and folded into the silence of its dew, and watched shadows woo silence, while whispering angels without wings but halos, danced in the purest shades of darkness, and spat lightening from their eyes, and also vomited stars. Suddenly, a splash of urine from the sky flogged my face and washed off the dew of illusions blindfolding my vision. And my brain yawned open, to notice that I was not only scared, sweating, but I have also urinated on myself, because I thought I saw God.
