.
Small words don't fit,
.
They can't elaborate upon the void
.
That has manifested upon the page.
.
.
No sentence,
.
No Beethovenian semi-colon,
.
No Sudoku puzzle
.
Of Dickinson dashes,
.
.
No small words,
.
No taut brevity
.
.
To occupy the Nietzschean chasm
.
Or to stretch a tightrope
.
That'd carefully carry its author 
.
Across the yawn of its expanse.
.
