Sometimes the truest tales
Are the ones that never happened-Cannot happen-
And are therefore free
To flagrantly disobey our
Modest rules
Of subtlety.

These are the stories
Which break the rules,
Of physics,
Of reality,
Of plausibility.
And yet it is in the breaking of these rules,
-These truths-
That we learn to live.

There are worlds we deem
"Impossible"
And "daft"
Because their logic is not ours.
They are the imaginings of a
Dreaming world.
But who are we to talk of
Reason,
And possibility,And sense?
Perhaps this world is just a story,
And we the fairy tales of our own
Dreamt-up realities.
