pregnant women

i wanted god to tell me something

but
i got distracted before
i could talk terms

so all day today

i saw pregnant women

there was one in black
first thing in the morning

there was an australian one
seeking vegemite

there was an older one
who looked sort of haggard
bags under her eyes

and there were several
just sort of random ones


i'm not sure
what god was answering

i don't think
i even asked my question

i only got out the part:

god, please
i need a sign
show me a pregnant woman...

but i didn't say what color shirt
or
what i wanted it to mean, exactly

but
i was in a super bad mood
all day
maybe it pms
but
it seems a little early for that, three or four days
so maybe god knew i needed it
but
i really didn't snap until a few hours ago

thanks, god
