Imagine

April 30, 2016

A world without thoughts.

No questions, no answers,

no response.

No poetry, no novels,

nothing.

Creativity - gone

Yesterday things could have been different.

Someone could have changed, broken out of the cycle.

Seen the big picture.

Seen it and knew that something was more important.

More important than just listening.

They could have been the talker.

The person who spread the word.

Forced other people to learn how to listen.

But no one did.

No one thought to walk on the moving walkway.

Just waited to see where it would take them.

No questions, no answers,

nothing.

Break out of the cycle.

Find the piece that you were looking for.

Run with it.

Don't wait for the others to catch up.
