The Hole Theory Poem by Charlie Parant

there’s a hole in my pocket, all my money is gone
there’s a hole in the fence and the dog has moved on
there’s a hole in the screen and there are flies out today
there’s a hole in the roof and there’s rain on the way
there’s a hole in the sky and the ozone is leaving
there’s a hole in the ocean, the dolphins are grieving
there’s a hole in the boat and we’re all sinking fast
there’s a hole in the tank and we’re losing the gas
there’s a hole in the ground and the miners are trapped
there’s a hole in the shuttle and it ain’t coming back
there’s a hole in my conscience, I’m losing my mind
there’s a hole in the hourglass, we’ve run out of time
there’s a hole in my theory, I guess I can’t win
there’s a hole in the universe, we’re getting sucked in
