Small Blue Bowl

Small blue
bowl.
Speck of
blue.
Limitless
black.
Infinite
void,
existence.
Finite
understanding.
Fish
in a
small
blue bowl.
Gulping.
Gaping
at what’s
around.
Existence
in a
small
blue bowl.
Can’t
see much.
Can’t
know much.
No concept
of anything
more.
Just a
fish
in a
small
blue
bowl
