I asked myself if imagination is enough:?: A poem 

I asked myself 

when I hurt my thumb 

as I touched the rose  

Are there thorns in imagination? 

Is a figment of fantasy a backlash? 

Do you have to contend with the disillusionment 

of the knowledge of its flaws? 

Because there are only imperfections in form 

out of the thought that seems perfect 

They challenge you, like a dream gone sour 

You can entertain illusions 

but can you have a party with reality? 

How did God feel when his imagination became material? 

When half of it fell out with him? 

Can you replace a part of you that is shorn? 

The creator and the creation could never be one (won) 

Because evil can crop out of nothing 

like the dust in your home 

We are all accommodating the dystopia 

It’s only the liars who are predisposed to imposing the utopia 

The righteous only keep wondering  

if imagination is enough, for Paradise to be reclaimed
