What am I able to do?
Can I, can I see?
Can I jump?
Can I swim? Can I bring happiness to the world? Can I help people? Can I be nice?
Can I be mean, can I talk? Can I move, can I do anything I want to do?
Can I be a hero? Can I not be in trouble?
Can I get rid of people I don’t like?
Can I play soccer, can I play basketball? Can I play baseball, or even tennis?
Ice skating?
What would happen if
I tried to explore a few planets?
What if I was a genius and
knew how to build a spaceship?
I would let my mind
unravel as I find an
equation.
I could make a spaceship so
I could use it to explore
planets like Jupiter, Mars
and Venus. It would be the best
thing that ever happened to
me.
That imagining could happen,
but I would go into the void
as I find another question
for big imagination.
I love my cat, she has gray fur and green eyes.
She is furry and friendly and in my lap is where she lies.
She walks really quiet and doesn’t make a sound
She takes small steps and you will never know she is around.
Her name is Sarabi and I love her so much
Sometimes I want a dog, but it may be too rough.
I feed her and pet her all day long
I give her toys for her to chase around.
I think she needs a cat friend that is sweet like her
They can play together and hear each other purrr.
My cat loves treats
If you keep giving them to her she wll eat eat eat.

You jump into the big black seed of the memories
you keep throughout your life. You pick out the seed
looking at your words coming to life before your very eyes
you lean into the deep depths of the milky way holding your deepest
darkest secrets behind. You see yourself jumping into a pool of
your dreams speaking gibberish to you in a voice full of nonsense.
You reach your turning point seeing a picture of your heart being
torn apart by your big black voice seeking attention of the crow
pecking by.
