Trigger Warning
An idea dies not
Because it’s not
A good idea, but
Rather because
It is not pursued
And left to rot on
The vine. For each
Idea has potential
Even the absurd
Ones do. Maybe
They are merely
Stepping stones
Which veer off
The beaten track
Toward directions
Unbeknownst to
Me and you, to an
Unexpected path,
Leaning toward
Unabated truths.
