Imaginative Spirit

A flicker of the imagination
can spark a wildfire among
the most creative of minds.

An enormous bundle of ideas
quickly turns into a mound of tinder
within the soul.

With a mere drip of fantasy,
the soul becomes engulfed
with the flames of wonder.

Actuality vs. Quality

Construing reality into our own fantasy
leaves us craving something
that is never actually there to begin with.

Living our lives, we endure what may cross our paths
and take what we desire,
disposing of the bits and pieces that we can live without.

Trouble is, by throwing away what we do not want
we are left with next to nothing.

Living a minimalistic lifestyle
reveals what is necessary.

Eventually, the line that once defined what was real from imagination vanishes,
leaving us to our own devices.
