Miniatures in Jest Original Composition Date: Monday, March 29, 2010 Listen https://gladioliworkbook.com/wp-content/uploads/365days/01-Jan/Day022-Miniatures-in-Jest.mp3 I didn’t know a world could be conceived this small.It’s disturbing, this overextended sense ofdisproportion is.I want to leave it, get off somehowand find a less shrinking, condensed place.There isn’t anything in balance or proportion here,my internal equilibrium is upset with it.It’s ill, sick.In need of dismantling,made smaller somehow, a humbler versionof itself.We need not be so grandiose in our churchly edifacesSuch a ballooning of values, so nothing else can existbesides it.It is in need of destruction!
