across the world we get to see
holes opening spontaneously;
caverns the size of Texas,
yawning wide to try and vex us.
from Siberia to Japan,
swallowing houses, gardens, vans.
some see them as the gates to Hell;
others think theyre kinda swell!
in America they sell tickets,
in Japan they fill em in;
in Russia they drink and gawk
while Tibetans, they just grin
the reality is here to see,
with a message clear for you and me.
the earth isnt solid at all
its one giant Wiffle Ball!

light and airy
in the cosmos
where you could
knock a wiffel ball
right out the park
with a plastic bat
you wouldn/'/t use
a wooden one nor
an aluminum
one because
even if you did
the bat speed wouldn/'/t
register and even if it
did the distance would
never register
the way a plastic bat
would
I played baseball
I know
It is kind of weird
and at the sametime
quite amazing
all the same
relativity
living things floating
landing someplace
else
Monty Python
a swallow
eating some tiny
creature and then
ending up thousands
of miles away
that living thing
bird poop mixed
with bird urine
mixed with who knows
Peace! |
