dive

A pet pastime of mine -- contemplating the alternate universe(s).  I have stood at the edge of water and seen, not the reflection of the sky, but the possibility of other worlds.  Recalling a much younger fascination with riding my bicycle, ever so slowly, through still puddles, I wrote, "step into a pool, fall into the sky" -- but what I really meant is that, standing right here at the water's edge, I still feel improbably close to a mystery that is just beyond my reach.  Those who labor to prove this to be true are my heroes.  

Remember the world
Living in the half
That you cannot see...

How I want that mystery
Let me dive 'til I believe
