The world is large.
And I want to eat it. I want to taste every individual corner, savor each grain and speck and fleck, a culinary orgy for me and mine of all there is and ever was, a sumptious banquet of life and death, pain and pleasure, here and now, and then and there. Gorge myself to filling, and then beyond on life's sweetest moments and darkest days, swallow all until no more can be taken in, then release it back into everything, a purifying regurgitation that fills the holes back in that I've taken for mine, that paints the world once more in what it was, but something different than before. It's got me in it; I'm in all I've eaten forever after, and those who share after me will share in me.
Life's all; eaten, savored, tasted, digested, and spit out.
And the world is large again.
