Other Worlds .........
What is it that we seek
In all these other worlds?
Is it just to escape
The mundane parts of life?
Or is it to break the rules -
At least for a little while
At least in our minds.
We enter these alternate realities
And admire the creators -
Maybe even hope to make
Worlds of our own one day
They give us new ideas
And play out our fantasies -
Safe little games of fiction.
But where is the guidebook
For those of us who really
Want to change the world -
Not just imagine what we want
But make it real - "make it so"
Not just to make a nice world
In our heads, but in reality?
The hero's journey is always hard -
To fight the things that are wrong
That everyone else seems to accept.
What they never tell you is that
The hardest part is coming back
To the real world, after you've seen
The peace and beauty of your own soul.
