Intimate Recreation

by Wes Payton

Intimate Recreation is a follow-up to Lead Tears, whose title is also a homograph. This is an origin story of sorts for a character named God, who prefers the inferior beings he studies on the planet below to his fellow denizens of an ancient space station that orbits above. Intimate Recreation explores issues of cultural purpose and ontology, as well as offers a unique sense of humor. Every old God must have been young once.
