I don't know the specific technology in Parslet, but if it's a typical recursive descent parser, you have to write your rules for lists a particular way, otherwise they become infinite recursion. The two ways are: list ::= word | word list and list ::= word | list word Which ever one you are using, try the other. And try to reduce your grammar to the smallest piece that breaks, and then work with it until it doesn't. I have been using Ruby and Rails for over 5 years and I have yet to see a stack overflow that wasn't infinite recursion.
