Wrapped

poem by: John Prophet
Written on Aug 16, 2023 

Wrapped 
up.
Self 
importance. 
Small
existence.
Simple
place.
Power,
control.
Movers
and
shakers.
Spinning 
Sea
Monkeys. 
Creations
 center.
Self
impressed.
Bowling
over.
Knocking
down.
Running
the show.
Calling 
the shots.
Oblivious 
of beyond.
Beyond the
bubble,
existence 
inhabited.
Ruling 
a mote
in the
infinite.
Bound!
Spinning 
Sea
Monkeys 
lost
in the
void.
Unimpressive.
Nothing
more.
