If I believed anything was possible
I would take my poor scattered brain
And put it in the freezer
And leave it there
To cool down,
Not forever
But for a while.

If I believed anything was possible
I would take all the words I know
And throw them in the sea
And watch them spread
Like bits of plastic
Out across the world
To distant shores.

If I believed anything was possible
I would take a walk
Through Shakespeare's brain
And watch it cull the
Music sweeping
Through his skull.

If I believed anything were possible
I would correct all the grammar
And talk quietly
To all the fools
Who want to stop
The world from turning.

At my moment of death
I would know my birth
And the truth
And I would see myself
Neatly outlined
In the pupil of your eye
As we exploded
And became
Angels
Balancing on the head
Of a pin.
