When you're exhausted
and cowed
and not touched;
when life is
too short
to do too much—
you must
ride that horse
of pale hesitation
past the
bare gulch of
familiar fact.
Do not address
Imagination's largess.
Start with the small stuff.
For instance,
never dismiss the
innocuous sentence.
abrupt words
may be the last keys
made to marry
the locks
of enormous thoughts
and bear forth
their inestimable
endogenous feelings.
