Well done, Ed! So many good turns of phrase here:

Yes, this poem is a stunner. Excellent work, Ed.

Good one, Ed! I enjoyed the humor and the depiction of depth. Staring at the whirlpool picture started making me dizzy!

Here is a quote falsely attributed to Albert Einstein, but is, I believe, relevant to your poem:

“The difference between genius and stupidity is that genius has its limits.”

Susan McLean 05-18-2020 10:28 AM

Wonderful, Ed. The repeated refrain is just what you need for a poem that has no bottom but just keeps circling around.

Terrific, Ed!

Nice one, Ed! Great stuff. And what Susan said about the refrain. That somewhat disorienting animated gif works well with the poem too.

Super fine work, Ed. Kudos!

Love it. Know it. Feel it. Fluidly down the drain we go. Someone put a stopper in it.
