—Then there is the final possibility, my favorite. —Yes? —The final possibility is that I’m God. —You’re God… — James Morrow

—Then there is the final possibility, my favorite.

—Yes?

—The final possibility is that I’m God.

—You’re God?

—Just a theory, but the data are provocative. I mean, look at me. Faceless, shapeless, holey, undifferentiated, Jewish, inscrutable...and a hermaphrodite to boot. Years ago, I told you sponges cannot be fatally dismembered, for each part quickly becomes the whole. To wit, I am both immortal and infinite.

—You’re God? You’re God herself? You?

—The data are provocative.

—God is a sponge? A sponge? There’s not much comfort in that.

—Agreed.

—Sponges can’t help us.

—Neither can God, as far as I can tell. I’d be happy to see some contrary data.
