A giant black caterpillar
With the haunting orange spot in the middle
As if dressed for a Halloween party
Expanding and contracting
To its internal drumming beat
May never finish crossing the road.
Where is he headed anyway?

Things get blown out of proportion
When you focus on them long enough

A tiny drop under the microscope
Reveals bugs and creatures of all kinds
Not seen by a naked eye
Dive deeper and you can see cells
Dive even deeper...
You may drown and never finish exploring

Or take another path instead
And imagine things that never existed
Wandering in the enchanted forests of your dreams
