V. 2, #180: September 25, 2013

The dreams I have might be achievable
in some strange universe apart from this
where there's no word for "unbelievable,"
and longshots hit more often than they miss;

I like to think there might exist a plane
but slightly changed from this in which we're living
where it's a simple matter to attain
one's goals, and gods of Fate are more forgiving.

The sun would shine, with no precipitation
to mar parades or cancel tee-ball games,
desires would never suffer sublimation
nor waste the heat of their initial flames;

It might get boring there, eventually--
but still, I'd like to try it out and see.
