Before I Knew Better
Where do Dreams begin
And Memory end?
Has it got to do with Time
State of mind
Natural development
Affected by environment?
Jumpin like a bean
On mommy’s bed
among the earliest
Memories I have
This is pre-school
under Grany's Care
I distinctly remember
Prescience in mid-air
I visualized
At such an early age
That I could jump up
Fly down the hall
Into the living room
And back again
Before my tiny feet
Landed on bed frame
I visualized this
Again and again
In my memory
Its firmly ingrained
That I flew that route
On the wings of Brain
Closest friends listen
Polite as I explain
But they can barely hide
suspicions I’m insane
Yet Scientists Insist
Human Minds access
The smallest percentage
Of their actual Promise
On this basis I choose
My memory true
before I knew better
I genuinely flew
