The World that We Cannot Yet See
2023
How do we create a world that we cannot yet see?
How do we express something that we cannot yet envision?
How do we travel to a place beyond even the imagination
And experience something that has yet to be?
There are times in life
When we feel stuck
When nothing we do is working
But we don’t know how else to be
When the world around us
Is clearly dying
And there is nothing except
Chaos and Destruction
What do we do in these moments?
When we cannot stay
Yet we know not where to go
To remain is to suffer
But to change
Is to face the fear
Of the unknown
We go anyway
For there is no real choice
When staying is dying
We must evolve to survive
We start with nothing
No plan, no intention, no idea
Only the most essential:
Hope, will, and instinct
We have no intention, no direction
We take each step as it comes
One after the next
We keep going, until
Something comes into being
And before we know it
We are somewhere
We have never been before
