The Gift of Fire
April 30, 2011
Let inspiration strike me—
Lightning upon my winged chariot.
Let the embers of thought rouse my mind,
And provide the glow of accomplishment.
Let me nurture those fledgling ideas;
I’ll chisel my very own Galatea.
I will be a Daedalus of my time,
Create a labyrinth of my grandest dreams,
Unleash that hidden potential:
A Metis between my ears.
I am capable—
I am ready.
Prometheus, father of man
Deliver me, that forbidden flame.
