Email From Christ

God's revelation,
until I looked carefully
an extra 'i' at the end,
Christi not Christ and
she'd been waiting at home for
long weeks, with no, well you know
exactly what she's
talking about and she had
some photos for me before
I clicked the delete button.


Started as a haiku, then tanka but just kept on going
