Dream of the Fantastic

I dream of the fantastic

Like biodegradable plastic

And underwear elastic

That never stretches out

I dream of the incredible

Like healthful food that’s edible

Or sunscreen that’s so spreadable

You’ll never miss a spot

I dream of the impossible

The outlandish and implausible

The unlikely, the improbable

The confounding and unfathomable

I dream each day of the absurd

Of soaring music yet unheard

And I’ll continue undeterred

To chase these dreams through deed and word
