GodMode

Our fathers glitch by fifty, hearts freeze framed mid- pump.   Our mothers metastasize, pass errors womb to womb to breast.   I enter GodMode: swallow the tail end of life and cheat death / cheat code / cheat this failing body, this inheritance I never asked for.  

GodMode is a common cheat code in video games, giving unlimited 'lives'.
