Should you decide to exist, God
or Yahweh, Allah, Mrs. Deity, Anu, whatever,
I’m wondering if you could backdate fulfillment
for my wish of Spider-Man number one.

I don’t care about it so much now,
but it really would have meant a lot to me
back when I was a pre-tween.
It might have changed things for me
in the social order,
which could have had substantial effects
in my self-esteem.

I can only imagine how I’d have blossomed
with more courage under the hood.

So, assuming you come to carnate yourself,
the ineffable,
as commander of time and space,
I’d appreciate it
if you go back and take care of this for me.
Really doing me a solid here.
Thanks!

Yours,
