ideas are chariots.
with them i'm carried away
into worlds unthinkable.
dancing among the galaxies,
a world in the sky.
hues, pigments, colors,
gone awry and randomly assorted.
favorite games,
wooded creatures humanized,
life underwater,
magic.
where does the mind take you?
fly to where you want to go
let your mind take you
wherever
you want.
whenever you want
whatever you want
to say, to do, to
love.
pick up a pen
a blank sheet of
paper.
time nonexistant,
you can write.
the world is yours.
even more.
just invent it.
it can exist
when you mar the paper.
a computer works too
so unelegantly though.
so breathe in white parchment
freedom, ink, an eraser.
so let your mind flow
to arm, pencil, paper,
words.
forget who cares
because you do.
that's what matters.
now go.
thinking isn't needed.
inhale exhale inhale
and again.
ponder, a moment's hesitation,
and
begin.
