I wrote this poem as I contemplated change.
Creativity
There’s drone out there
Squelching imagination,
New directions,
Paths emerging –
Monotone dull that’s it,
Lacking inflection
Smothering passion;
Mandating repetition
In past illusions
Of colorless routine.
It’s time to stir awake
This sleeping soul
Who now limits excitement
To painted reflections
On a wall of spent youth.
Dismiss that protocol
Disguised as politeness
That binds us to a past,
Assumes all is known,
Abandons discovery.
Then each sunrise
Will blaze brilliant
Across a landscape
Not yet visited,
A horizon stretching wide.
Yes – you are invited
To question – seek clarity,
Challenge one’s fears direct,
Explore heart regions not visited,
Pursue solutions sought.
