The Best Poem Of Eli Chubin

Chicken Little

I pushed a single thought out of my head,

But that was my mistake.

Other thoughts came flooding in, worse than before.

It’s Pandora’s Box all over again.

Sickness, death, lies, hatred,

Slander, treachery, fury, grief.

It’s an avalanche,

Caused by the removal of that one little thought.

It cannot be stopped, not until it’s done.

It’s Noah’s Ark, but without a boat.

I’d give anything to halt this storm,

But nothing can stop this flood in my mind.

So it just goes to show

That one tiny thought, if forgotten,

Will cause the demise of my brain.
