Be Right Back

What if I vanished
for a day?
Would they search
for me,
hope and pray
for me?

What if I took off
for a few hours?
Got in my car
and drove as far
as my mind
would take me

What if I checked out
for a minute or two?
Wandered the earth
from the safety
of my own imagination

Nice poem. I definitely am digging the concept. I sometimes to would just like to "check out" and leave for a few..a minute or two. I guess that's why we have our imaginations and great writings.

I like how you are progressively going down from a day to a minute.

I think this poem would be much stronger if you could clean up where you are breaking your lines.

It may just be me, but I think that the

Would they search

can be cleaned up a bit?

Nice concept, nice poem

thanks for the piece!
