Existential Ohm

Existential Ohm

A Poem by TheUnrulyWriter
"

the opposite of an existential crisis

"
It's not that it's there,
It's that it's happening
There's darkness and lightness 
And I'm there

I don't understand it
And that's fine
If I was bigger
The world would seem small

But I'm puny
And grateful
For I can look up
And see life

This is fantastic! You have said so much, so simply, so eloquently. I cannot say enough great things about this. This style truly appeals to me - when you can speak metaphor without saying a word. This absolutely gripped me from the first lines through the last. This could have been a great epic, and then.....well, as it turns out it was, indeed. It was epic tale of possibility - life. How grand your writing. I completely embrace this. Well done.

Standing on my little bar stool to cheer loudly.

Thank you!!! Glad you liked it :)
This is a very neat piece! I've never really thought about the opposite of an existential crisis before, but I like that idea very much. Your title drew me in, and the rest of the piece kept me here until the last line. I especially like the line "If I was bigger, the world would seem small". It's such an obvious statement, but when thought about, it has a bit of a philosophical vibe to it. Overall, great job. This is a very thought provoking piece! :)

I appreciate the tone of this one... I smiled when I finished reading. And then I read it again.

Short, sweet, to the point. A wonderful sense of contrast.

thank you.
