Smallness crept inside Wormlike string of fear At the face of the grandiose Grandeur, something You wish could entangle in between All your gaps supporting The thin walls of crushing unimportance And as it squirmed inside You stomach empty and raging It filled you with despair Urgency to escape or to be Held and cradled By this enormity of everything Most of which you will never see Inside were thoughts Bouncing off the walls Meaninglessly sinking in And dripping out Just as meaninglessly What are they in the face Of endless repetition So glorious and terrifying You could breathe it in Feel it, write it out, sculpt it Or take care of its smallest bits That fit into your grip Tiny you are Tiny I am And all of them to come Just as tiny-tiny bits of Comparative insignificance Yet like the molecules of matter We hit each other's trajectories And butterfly's wing governs the ball So, good night dear insignificance I thought of you today Between every other blink And on the big scale It hardly even happened Yet thought was most alive In the universe of my Petty mind That never happened before And will never exist again
just something that came to mind as I watched silence floating by on the wings of prideful silliness
