So here I sit
On the precipice
Of the future
Choices,
And get told
That it should be easy.
The books
That crowd the
Shelves
Of Self-Help
And Empowerment
All say
The same thing,
“If there were no limits,
And no way to fail,
What would you do?”
The shorter list would
Be what wouldn't
I?
I dream of things like
Breaking the veil
Between the world,
Sideways,
Backways,
So every muggle
And mundane
Could see that they
Live with a gaggle
Of faries
And the old man
Who died there
Still walked
The corridor
At night.
That their 3 year
Old son says
The old guy
Is his imaginary friend.
That's,
If there were
No limits.
That's what I would do.
But wait there's more.
I would get my PhD.
In psychology
And creative arts therapies,
Make Naropa
The 3rd accredited
School in the country
To teach Drama Therapy,
As I travel the country
To teach people
To role play
Themselves
Into the people
They always dreamed were
Possible.
Then,
Create my program
High Caliber,
And change the face
Of education ever more
And destroy the system
From the outside with
Consumerism
Making it the
Next new bright
Shinny thing
Leaving the idea
That education in
The one size fits
All,
Which mean it fits
None
In the shadows
Of a history
Which was actually
Properly taught.
No another choice…
BE a world renown
Chalk artist,
And world renown
Performance poet,
And world renown,
Fantasy writer…
At the SAME time.
More choices…
To take five to seven years
At a time and become
Engrossed in projects
Until I become a master
Of it or them,
Like making masks,
Which are so imbued
With magick,
That even the most
Mundane person
Places mask to face,
That they could
Channel the gods
They connect with…
Next project,
Making farie trees,
Homes, and figures,
So incredible,
That for every one
Purchased,
The owners reported
They were alive…
Next to play and sculpt
With light,
Paintings of light,
Sculptures of neon colors,
Interactive visions,
Where you touch it,
It sees you and responds
To delight the soul
And open the mind…
Next playing with
Telekinisis, until I could
Easily move objects about…
Hey if that guy on Youtube
Can do it, why not me?
Or you?
I have more things
I would do
If there were no limits
And I couldn't fail…
And I know that
This may seem
Like a lot,
But this is nothing,
This is God's
Playground…
This is Einstein's
Silly putty…
And the question
Is taken
Like someone
Had no idea
That we had to
Play inside
The sandbox…
That there is an entire
World the
Box exists
In.
Inside you,
Inside me,
Inside us,
So long as we dream
It is possible,
It is.
