In words so common place
Knowing what is going to be said
In endless repeatability

In the solitude of an opened book
Words are sent into endless possibilities
Floating the mind into creative universes

Peaceful reflections in tumultuous passages
Twisted within life’s messages
Arousing the mundane into a celestial firestorm

In magnetized words that whirl you
To never ending places of intrigue
To ride the highest level of awareness

To loose the ordinary in the profound
Escaping realism in fantastic hallucinogenic thought
That transcends the ordinary into something special

Putting the dream down for the mundane
Of doing the things to get by
So that in reality you can buy the books
To again fly away with greater intensity

Reading treats our minds to treasures of others minds, so we can travel with them and see their perspectives. I enjoyed your poem, and look forward to reading more.
