A trip the light fantastic poem about my weird mind and how I see my reality.

-Image Caught In Time-
by
Keaton Foster

*Vignette5* *Vignette5* *Vignette5* *Vignette5* *Vignette5*


In this mind
There is an image caught in time
A pre-apocalyptic wilderness
Of an eagerness to love and be loved
A blissful Eden that never has existed
Enslaved only by my imagination
Such a place is as beautiful as it is wicked
Such a place is unparalleled
By all others created by me
In this mind I do see all that is to be
Many terrifying creatures lurk
All frozen in frame
Because I alone know their shame
There is and will be no escape
Forever each detail comes to life
Summoned up at a whim
Easily again and again
The muse for my rhymes
The mother and father of my brutal ways
The God of my sacred universe
Turned upon its head
In this mind
There is an image caught in time
Certainly someday soon what is seen
What is frozen in frame will escape
Out into the real world all around
The real world that I have always refused
Because such a reality lends no muse
I do not write what can been proven
I wish to only write about the many untruths
That all human beings at one time or another face
My decimated dreams may be full of implausible screams
But such dreams I will certainly fight to make true
My life, an image caught in time
My life, a tragedy of the mind…
