Come to Mommy

I don't understand how eternity
is envisioned as something different
than the immediate here and now.

Let's say eternity were an ocean
and the immediate here and now
were in the ocean a drop of water
could that or any particular drop
be extracted from the ocean
the degree of its diffusion
near impossible to exact

I'm getting dizzy, baby
so let me cut it short
Mommy believes in big, bigger and biggest.
not that God could not make Godself
tiny, tinnier, tinniest
if Godself wills it

So, here's the question, honey
could space and matter be so simple
that if on the left, there were a telescope looking out
and on the right, a telescope looking in
(you know what I mean, a microscope)
could not the distance at either end
double back upon itself and meet dab center in the middle
the belly button of the universe, so to speak
could, would space time be so simple
as to be a silly limerick?

I'm dizzying, again, I fear
and heck no, forget it!
Mommy will not loosen her asteroid girdle
nor her queen size bra and garter
a woman has to stay in shape
it's why our eyes we twinkle
and rouge our lips and flirt
and rouge our lips
