The God that Made the Platypus (Prompt: Suspicious)


I’m not sure
what I have to offer you
but it  must be something
for you to
say love me.

I will not believe you
until I convince myself
of my lovability,

for surely,
I cannot be worthy
of love
just because I exist.

So I trust that
the God that made
the platypus,
flatulent giggling,
and other
mysterious,
silly
phenomena

loves me too
because in my own
strange, confused way
I think
I must amuse Him.
