Astral Projection

Unencumbered by my body mass and girth
I fly along at the speed of whim
Unconcerned about physical attributes
I can focus on the joy and beauty of my vantage point
The world below and out in front of me, opens
The world of noise and doubt inside of me, closes
In this place of "betweens" I find solace
In this place of "infinites" I find myself
                                                  .......drifting....
                                                                   .......yearning.....
                                                                                     ...........growing.

Now THIS is creative, Jim. Best one I've read for the contest. Congratulations on your success. Love, Carolyn (Daver Austin should read this -- he wrote a novel about astral projection)
