Sometimes it’s hard for me
to fit in this world
sometimes I feel that I
could stop a rushing train
right there in its tracks
seconds before speeding off a cliff
absorbing its full momentum
saving hundreds at a time
that my roar could cause an avalanche
which in one embrace I would stop
that I would devise an equation
quantising particles
manifolding them
thereby unlimiting food and fuel
that I could fly out in space
grab and chew a whole black hole
and spit out a new universe
in my mind’s eye I can
and have done all these things
of course in the real world I couldn’t
but my daydreams and nightdreams
are full of daily scenarios
because I am weak-bodied
and strong-willed
and because I know
what it takes to love
what it takes to be unloved
to seek refuge in dreams
when everything else
falls apart
for my inner world is larger
than the entire universe
