MUNCHING ON EXISTENCE*

by Joanna Gilman Hyde

The Tomato-coloured Couch 5:53pm

I am salivating

to Save The World

to spoon It out

from under Itself

feed Me Our New Existence

which is ancient

Yes — I could eat It —

consume Its micro-biotic

Humanoids

Who keep questioning God

when They don’t have to

& spit Them out

afresh
