Best Bigness Poems

This place is full of bigness
the dog is big, the masters foot is big
And I am small, a mouse, a house mouse

I scurry about in the dark
crumbs are beautiful things, I eat
But I feel small, a mouse, a house mouse

I am warm and dry, but...

The Lone Star State

Texas
displays bigness,
roses and bluebonnets
a few past U.S. Presidents 
cowboys.

Finding a new phone case you want
Didn’t even get a follow back on
DVT HR in a while ago but
Thrift store in a while ago but
Ends with the new version is better
Ended my life and the rest of
Dusty to be the first half of

In case...

Hey Poke!
Yes, you!
I can see your nose in my business
I’m not trying to be disrespectful
But, I can see your nose
Oh, it’s so big!
Don’t act surprised
Everyone knows
Look, there’s no place for your nose here
You can’t park it here
This is my space
Hey, this is no joke!
I can...

The Very Small Man
Lives in a Very Big Place
Inside a VERY BIG PLACE 
He never visits.

Inside his Very Big Place,
The walls are of polished gold -
By their magic
Every reflection looks BIG
(Like the VERY BIG PLACE outside).

So the Very Small Man
Thinks he is a Very Big...

Little Tiny Timothy
Was less than five feet tall
Not much chance of growing
His Dad was also small!

For quite a little while then
He felt he didn't fit in
Things were geared for bigger boys
He was also very thin!

Love to play a contact sport
Bigger boys would laugh
At this little...

The Look of a Giant Monster Who Eats Children and Puppies
Gnashing and slashing he crashes into my world
Taking over my soul, or trying to.
His sharp claws are scary to others
I have seen giant monsters before, and I will again.
I have tamed two, I am not...

Hesitant, I look up at the sunset, 
Hoping he doesn't catch glimpse 
Of the look in my eyes. 

The first time I saw you;
Your rays burst the sky a blue hue, 
I'd glance in adoration,
Quietly feeling every breath
Of blind warmth. 

I would find myself wishing...

LOOKING AT A MAP OF THE PACIFIC



A big blue squarish shape of paper 
But without edges as limits.
Over each swash of this blue bigness
Are names printed to identify the unidentifiable.
A strait or a bay or a gulf or channel may let you try
To grasp the...

We are not going under, we are going over
For God is with us, He will preserve us 
With oil and wine from His supernatural storehouse
We can go there and draw whatever we need
He will intervene to supply our needs from
His reservoir of riches in Christ,...

I walked around the grounds
And saw crutch after crutch
Piled together making one
Huge collage of life-like
New beginnings.
On the inside, colored glass
Beamed in the sunshine.
You didn't need
The ugliness of incandescent.
Everything about the place
Shined and gleamed
Like a car freshly washed
And waxed.  I stood there,
In awe of its...

There once was a big spider
Rupert was his name,
He worked real hard to be a guard 
in the hall of fame.

Rupert was not stupid
caught bugs with much surprise,
Though fans could never see this
for Rupert’s huge in size.

Most famous for his bigness
sending many frantic,
He autographs as...

The belief that we become healthier,
healed,
redeemed
through commitment to some power
bigger and higher than just ourselves
follows left-brain dominant teaching,
and appeals to patriarchal thirsts
for robust ego empowerment.

Right-brain prominent feelings
do not disagree with,
dissonantly conflict with,
this bigness metaphor
but monotheistic universalism is not right-brain resonant,
while depth is everything
everywhere
every interconnected potential...
