Out there

Blink and you'll miss it

Is the promised land

(Or at least somewhere different)

Pressed up to the glass to see it-

I get distracted by my own reflection

Like a live-wire, hope flickers

Against the pitch black

In rich contrast-

Hypnotized by the horizon

I hold out my hand-

I just want to build

Some kind of bridge

To where the source material lives

I want to build

Brick by brick, until I am changed-

For a minute I'll be endless

For a minute I'll be brave

For a minute I'll make sense of

All of my mistakes

I've poured over the blueprints

I've stuck to the plan-

Even a little ahead of schedule

But still missing parts of who I am

My active imagination

Fills in the empty space-

The pencil reaches wide

But like anything held too tight it breaks

I just want to make

Some kind of mark

Permanent ink

Right from the start

I want to draw

Line by line

Until I am changed-

I just want to build

Some kind of bridge

To where the source material lives

I want to build

Brick by brick, until I am changed-

For a minute I'll be endless

For a minute I'll be brave

For a minute I'll make sense of

All of my mistakes

And for a minute I'll be endless

For a minute I'll be home

For a minute I'll make something

To forever call my own

I'll always wrestle with patience-

The dissonance of purgatory

But I'll try to make use of the tension

In this first and second act of my story
