The Creator

Today I don’t want to be me
And I mention today irrelevantly
Today I want to be everything
To be one thing seems too small,
And not as pretty

Today I write names and stories
In the margins of this page
What does it mean? Not anything
Crickets sing in a chorus;
There’s no self to gauge

And I would like a name in every language
Or I would like a name that everybody has
And I would like to be the Creator
Everybody is the Creator
(The something greater)

Maybe when I die
I’ll become dust floating in the sky
Maybe by & by
I’ll become less like myself
And more like the sky

Chorus
(We learn it later)
