A thousand worlds of wonder, are dancing through my mind A thousand worlds incorpreal, that only I can find No eyes can see their beauties and no ears can hear their call... Have I birthed a thousand worlds, only to doom them all? Worlds of barren iceflows, alight with frozen fire Dim green light beneath the trees, or burning like a pyre Dark blue depths of muffled sounds, where mighty sea beasts wend... If I can't keep them turning, a thousand worlds will end. Human worlds, or lifeless, or worlds with alien kind: Heroes, fools and villians, and lovers gaily blind. Two hands, four hands, suckers, those who whistle, shriek or purr... And if I can't portray them, it's as if they never were. Their empires and their townships their struggles and success The generals who battle, and the leaders who impress The seeds of change they planted and the harvest of the crop... And if I cannot find the workds, a thousand stories stop. I spend my days in striving, to bring them to the light Only to find their numbers have expanded overnight No matter how I labour and no matter how I strive, Only the merest fragments ever can be made alive... But a thousand worlds of wonder, are trapped inside my head A thousand worlds all fated to die when I am dead And so I keep on hoping I can pass some on to you... By sharing them with others, I can maybe save a few. This is the most depressing thing I've ever written, so maybe it isn't the best thing to drop in with, but the topic seems so wonderfully apropo. :)
