Kurt Vonnegut, R.I.P.


God made mud.
God got lonesome.
So God said to some of the mud, "Sit up! "
"See all I've made," said God, "the hills, the sea, the sky, the stars."
And I was some of the mud that got to sit up and look around.
Lucky me, lucky mud.
I, mud, sat up and saw what a nice job God had done.
Nice going, God.

From Cat's Cradle (1963)

Kurt Vonnegut died last night
