Ode to Creativity

Let your 

            Imaginings

                        Take you away from your usual reality

[The stigmatism makes the trees look shrouded in peacock feathers. The charred wood speaks of beginnings.]

Your dreams

            Can only take you

                        So far

[The orange sun emerges like a city light. It’s a globe of fire, continent of flame. But the People of the Sun are burned by ice.]

Your heart

            Can lead the way,

                        But creativity will guide you

[Many things are held sacred in this world: the voices of the feathered things, the coming of Dawn, the mysteries of the End. Do you see your imaginings among them?]

Your dreams

            Can make you stronger

                        Love will make you wiser

[The fog drips down on the sidewalks. Is this what it feels like to be suspended in a cloud? Your breathththth encapsulated in the pearly white mist?]

As the winter leaves,

            Summer will come

                        Will your colors burst free?

[The ocean stretches forever, the first sustenance. You always face the east when you swing, because that is where you came from. Uncertain waves channel the essence of infinity. What would it be like to fall into them?]

Be akin to

            Wonder

                        Watch the wild things
