Best Wurst

Worse to dream of the soft pink folds of delicate flowers or the glistening pink gums of a yawning, gasping, man-eating shark?

Let me rephrase:

Worse to dream of falling off a cliff or a tiny pearl?

Let me continue...

Somehow the best things on earth are limitless and off limits
Somehow the best things we can imagine have already happened, but not like that
Somehow there is a food that is so incredibly tasty, it instantly kills you the moment after you savor the most unworldly taste you will ever know
Somehow none of that will make sense to a novice
Somehow we are all novices walking around other people's pets
Somehow we are all just trying not to step in excrement
Somehow all the excrement ever sent through a pipe is never seen again by the expeller
Somehow we will walk miles in each other's shoes and remain novices
Somehow novice reminds me of niche
Somehow we rarely find our niche until we are trying to unwedge ourselves
Somehow this has gone too far

Is it worse to dream of a seafaring maiden or a sinking ship?

Let me explain.

Is it perhaps worse to remember a taste so vividly that it strangles you or to have cake that has eaten itself too?
