Heart and Grit

Space

Creative Spark

10 Jun

I like space.

Because there is nobody in it,

including me.

The chatter of crusty old selves

that I call myself

has cleared out without

lifting a finger.

Vanquished by some magical sneeze

from a trickster spritzer

that wipes clean the windscreen of my mind.

I get out of my own way …

My brain hops out for a romp in the field of dreams,

safe to rattle and shake with faeries and mischief-maker mystics.

We wreak havoc in the attic

on those snarky little must-dos

that have tongue-tied me up

for too long in the basement

of my imagination.

They scurry away, tails between legs,

jump back onto a neat little list

pinned to my fridge, far away

from the fantastamagical land

that strikes up the band

whenever my space invaders

have quit their invasion.

Space …

not just a cadet,

but a five-star general in

the army of holy ragamuffins.
