In the darkness of a long Friday night shift
Making 100 pizzas an hour
my energy drains, my mind wanders
I leave my body behind to cut the pies
and I happily flip between dimensions
memories, lives and possibilities.
3 physically grueling hour later,
I return to find my poor body exhausted
Ordered to some random task.
The REAL me responds out of my broken body
with a ******** quip about linear time
and temporal mechanics.
Suddenly, I hear myself!
Suddenly, I see myself!
Suddenly, blindingly, I feel a light!
Bright, all encompassing, radiant light
Like the North Star,
but undimmed and unhindered.
In all its splendour, it shines
a leaf-covered path
suddenly clear as day!
What I would love to do
is to study physics
and obtain a master's degree
in Quantum Mechanics.
Energised by naught more than this realisation
my body works effortlessly on a record long shift
while my heart sings
and my mind dances happily
and I, the true me rejoices
For finally, I have realised
and allowed myself to accept
what excites me!
