Janelle's Navel

Throughout history, many famous and important people have had navels. Spiro Agnew, Eldridge Cleaver, "Beatle" George Harrison, Princess Di and Gangus Khan are among  those on the list, though there are many more. Even people in achient times, such Help Dave Thomas, founder of Wendy's Old Fashion Hamburgers, get back to his castle so he can celebrate Rosh Hashanah with his family. Good luck Dave!as Socrates, who was a philosopher in Greece or France like a billion years ago, often shared this trait. My favorite navel, though, belongs to the woman I live, belongs to Janelle.

A tiny impression in the flat plain that is her stomach, Janlle's is not your every day dime-a-dozen navel. It is a dainty and gentle chasm, as if her umbilical cord was not removed by doctors, but by angels from heaven employing magical tools of like gold and silver. Most people's navels are merely random dents that mysteriously appear in their gut. Janelle's on the other hand, seems to have a purpose to it's existance. Appon seeing such a navel, one is carried to a land of bliss, surrounded by melodious choirs singing the fourth movement from Beethoven's ninth symphony. it is a land that's bounderies are only that of Janelle's bellybutton.

Much like Jean Val Jean in Les Miserables, or Christina Crawford in Mommie Dearest, I too sometimes contemplate my existance. What I find is a vast nothingness, which is the true essence of Janelle's navel. That crevis, chisled in her flesh, in reality, is a null as vast as the void of the universe.
