Void 9

The World Only Exists

In Your Eyes.

You Can Make It

As Big or As Small

As You Want To.

And You're Trying

To Be a Little

Individual.

By God

If I Ever Cracked

I'd Try To

Make the World Crack

With Me.

It's Much Better to Say

That It's Not You

That's Cracked-

It's the Grand Canyon."

I Had Been Thanking

The Gods

Too Long

And Thanking Them

For Nothing.

The Cracked Plate

Has to Be Retained

In the Pantry

Has to Be Kept in Service

As a Household Necessity.

It Can Never Again

Be Warmed.

It Will Not Be Brought

Out for Company

But It Will Do to Hold Crackers

Late at Night

Or to Go Into the Icebox

Under Leftovers.
