Fireworks

Inside my head

my power is infinite 

I can walk up the walls

break minds like eggshells 

and bend everyone 

to my will.

Sometimes this

translates into 

the life of everyday 

more easily than 

you might think.

But it is a stupid 

crutch to lean on

as people often 

come out from the ether

resentful or

bewildered.

After all

the arc of my journey 

is not yours

unless chance

casts us together.

Today I am filling

boxes of fireworks 

to leave in unexpected places

it isn’t malice

I just want to be sure

that tomorrow is colorful 

and exciting.
