Writing Infinity

The Worlds in Between

Writing is good for me

but I wonder

why is it good for me?

I discovered then that

a blank page is

the mightiest thing

in the world

and more

a blank sheet

is mightiest than

the world

On a blank sheet

I can fit

all the worlds

I can shape them

at my whim

I can be me

I can be another

I can do and be

whatever I want

god and devil

and everything in

between

Then

not only did I discover

the true magnitude

of a blank sheet of paper

but I discovered

that it is

the only place

where my mind is

totally

f

r

e

e

That's why it is good for me

to write

because I am

my own sovereign

of my world

I write on one side

and on the other side

of the page

I can invent a world

on one page

and a world on the other

I can be someone different

in each of those worlds

or the same one in both worlds

This led me to think that

if there is a world

on one side

and another

on the other side

between those worlds

there is a

s p a c e

An inner space

the inside of the page

where no one can write

but there is

a dimension

between what we write

on one side

and

on the other side

We will never access

that world

but it

exists

it is there

I thought of

cutting the sheet

but by cutting it

in the middle

I have two blank sheets

again

a couple of worlds

per sheet

and another secluded world

inside it

I can repeat this

until I can no longer

divide the blank sheet

anymore

and there will always remain

an insular world

where no one has access

where no one can write

that is

the infinity of

a blank sheet

Then

I realize again that

writing is good for me

I am free

I write, I write, and write

and then

I turn the page

and discover

yet

another world.

There’s more in traveling than just being in motion.
