Holes

Are funny

To make one

Just dig

Let's say

You have a

Magnificent hole

A

Deep

Cavernous

Gaping anatomy

In fact

You are somewhat proud

Then you realize you spent all day

Digging

You look around you

Surveying your

“Work of art”

All you have with you is your

Shovel

Well

You think to yourself

This shovel is not nearly tall enough to reach to the top of the hole

So you sit for a while thinking

How

How you are going to get out of your hole

Then it hits you

I will dig

I have a shovel don't I

If I can create something

This big

This massive

I certainly can get out

Hours pass

Every one

Scooped up

flung

Over the universe’s shoulder

A day passes

But you never see the sun

You are so deep

that

Darkness

Has completely

Consumed you

A week passes

There is no more digging

No digging

Because

Nobody is there to dig

Well

Nobody alive

As you died it dawned on you

The easiest way to get out of a hole

Is to

Wait

And prey

That help comes

because  when you dig

It’s

always

down
