Imagination: blessing and a curse–
For though it means that you are never bored,
It means your productivity gets worse
If work’s less interesting than thoughts explored.

To sink within the boundaries of dream
When seemingly alert and wide awake,
Can make your breathing quicken and eyes gleam,
Feigning attention, when you truly ache

For something far beyond the everyday,
Proscribed discourse, and bland respectability;
But since the glorious stars in orbit stay,
One might consider dreaming sad futility.

Accelerated pulse may preordain
A change in mastership of your domain.
