How to rock your world

Step one: lay on table.
Step two: smear petroleum jelly-type substance on stomach.
Step three: plug body into an amplifier, as though you’re a guitar.
Step four: listen as your kid’s heartbeat vibrates through the room.
Step five: whisper "Oh." Because even though you do words for a living, there are none that can even touch the surface of this moment.
