she's heard it all before, God's wife

it's wonderous
work,
meticulous
fine art,
his carvings of geese
and duck,
lions
and deer.
the room is full of them.
he shows
me around the room,
and picks
up each piece
telling me in detail 
the inspiration that helped
him create
from a block of wood,
this near
living thing.
step by step
he relives his creations.
i give him all the wows
he rightly
deserves, while
in the other room, his wife
shakes her head,
and says, oh my,
here we go again.
