I don’t know? Why are you asking me? What is a shrew doing with it’s cute little eyes all screwed up -
- well, it doesn’t need them to see anymore.
No, but what if it wants to look up at the stars once?
Well, it doesn’t need them to do what it’s supposed to do - shuffle around in the dirt, eat worms or whatever it eats,
-and change the planet one dusty garden-corner at a time, preferably under my sunflowers, please, if you do.
But it does need them to stare into the pondwater when the bird’s bath has tipped over in a fresh thunderstorm so loud the children inside are covering their ears and giggling, and for a moment the little shrew, come out of a dwelling that’s not yet flooded stiff, looks inside and the clouds part and he sees the celestial bodies and pictures god as a shrew in the skies with a nose as long as the sea.
You see?
No.
Ah, but I did. Because I looked in the pond.

[Overlooking the land outside of the garden, from up on the wall.] Do you ever wonder if God hates us?
No.
