On the day I first came to the world
and found it,
wait,
those were two widely-separated days
but in any case I found it
huge and big,
bursting with weird flavor
and a smell that has never gone away
oh hey
maybe that's me
Anyhow
the sights, the sounds
the feels - tactile
and emotional -
the whole dang thing
revelated itself
as it revelates still
it is wonderful.
Shall I keep it? Oh yes
I think
I will
and I can tell.
I will keep it full,
as it makes me old,
if it makes me ill,
as it makes me well
I will keep it still.
I will pick the pith
as I drink the juice
and I gnash the pulp,
and the rind also,
they will throw me away
an empty shell.
and away
I'll go
