POEM: Life Eschewing

Oftentimes, less is more.

Life Eschewing

How do you eat an elephant? One bite at a time – and with lots of hot sauce.

Byte buy byte
I could feel myself being
Swallowed hole
Never getting enough
I couldn’t feel
The ground beneath me
Giving way
Little by little
That is un-till
I bit off less
Then I could chew
Apportion just
My size
At thirst peering a slight of sort
Yet be for long
I apprehended
Sow soon
The unspeakable nature
Of more than a mouthful
Immanently present
Soully miraculous morsels
A mounting to the largesse of awe
Won
At a time
When effacing that which is
Bigger than life
