![]() Do You Believe ImagineA Poem by Sasha![]() A bit of introspection about imagination.![]() As you grow, life can teach you many things. But how does one go about learning what should come naturally? Never have I, even as a child, seen myself breathe underwater or soar above the clouds. Boxes never transformed into impenetrable fortresses. Bees never became flower warriors prepared to defend at all costs. I never had a secret oasis filled with unicorns and mermaids. I never believed there was a pot of gold at the end of a rainbow or that I could find it if I tried. Invisible people were not real and I saw no need to call them "friend". The closest I got to a life fantastic was making stuffed animals have sex with dolls - even that is disturbingly realistic. Despite my questionable pastime, I did have innocence. The world was so simple and straight-forward - so plainly real. How do I change that now? Simulate imagination as a robot would emotion? The result would be very much the same. Even if I saw these things now, I would never make me believe. Children of the world, with your uninhibited, larger than life dreams, I envy you. I do not believe imagine. © 2010 SashaAuthor's Note
