I have landed
in the world
of MAGICAL
THINKING,
I wonder how
long I can stay,
it occurs to me
without a word
that this is
the only way
but why is
the path so
hard to find
why can’t I
simply open
my mind
whenever the
urge
to merge
into the light
of fancy flight
that carries
me over the
doldrums
and sparks
the creative
smoldering
flame
that started
this mind blowing
wild-ass game,
for today I feel
as if I could
and will
and might
and maybe should
do all those things
that seem unreal
when all it takes
is just the skill
to climb into the
wizard’s ship
and hold
on tight
for the
magical trip,
but you can
have it
either way
it’s really only
the price you pay
to just survive
or celebrate
BEING ALIVE!
