my jugular:

I fit in a 3x4,
and a 3x4 occupies and instant,
an instant fits in a candle,
and a candle fills a whole afternoon,
an afternoon spreads across my bed sheets,
and my bed sheets fit in a drop of dew,
a drop of dew cradles a sunflower,
and a sunflower blooms in a bowl of cereal,
and a bowl of cereal nestles a spoon,
and a spoon embraces a whole night,
and the night is squeezed into a ticket,
a ticket holds an entire movie,
and a movie fits inside a projector,
a projector enfolds the light,
and the light travels the universe,
the universe curls up in a book,
and a book does not contain itself,
but it fits inside my heart,
and my heart holds the world,
and in this world,
I want to be lost.
