One Thing
Common, simple thoughts are hard to place in
deep context as they rush our minds and hold them fast.
So,
we don’t look in,
but out,
around, and
past.
Too small to be big,
small-thoughts squeeze
between lines
suggesting,
hinting,
asking,
& telling
as the tale unfolds.
To big to be small,
they come off as incidental
while holding a universe
in their grasp.
We wander half-awake through days ignoring
the stupendous humble things each day contains:
