the great conversationalist's whining in a list of creative titles

1 ) the great conversationalist
2 ) scurrying sentences around aimlessly
3 ) like the ant with the brown bubble bottom
4 ) and two antennas posing as gruffy whiskers;
5 ) he found flesh and fabric and furnished wood
6 ) in the vast ungraspable spaces of the universe.
7 ) but the unsuccessful burrowing creature could
8 ) find no solace in the meaningless touching of
9 ) flesh on mahogany, cloth or skin.
10 ) At least the skin was an opiate;
11 ) a luxury, an item of contentment, a little merriment
12 ) but epidermal swelling is ephemeral
13 ) and a victory of little significance and even more danger.
14 ) What is significant is to find in the infinity
15 ) a mirror self that makes sense.
16 ) The great conversationalist talked
17 ) to the great infinity
18 ) over and over again about the ant
19 ) hoping to have his echoes heard
20 ) by an ear yearning to hear them.
