Holes
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
