SUNDAY’S VILLANELLE: FEBRUARY 16, 2014
Posted by admin on February 17, 2014 Blog | | No commentsDream Big
Dream Big. You’ll be whatever you want,
but before you set off, let me ask:
Do you want to push a wall?
You seemed the kind, if not, excusant:
your glare is a mask.
Dream Big. You’ll be whatever you want.
A face in the films, eh? A brain at DuPont?
You’re as fixed as Damask–
Do you want to push a wall?
There’s more change in it than a wishing font,
but, of course, still consider any task
Dream Big. You’ll be whatever you want
particularly if you desire to be poor and gaunt
and fit inside a tiny cask
Do you want to push a wall?
You’ll never go no further than the stones you haunt,
but at least you’re alfresco, not trapped at a desk.
Dream Big. You’ll be whatever you want.
Do you want to push a wall?
