Define Creativity

Laying out the sacred miniscules,

claiming knowledge to be your 
land.

Infinity with an open eye,

truth in the palm of your hand.

Amidst rolling whispers,

distorted answers through 
translucent glass.

Ambition seized too soon,

questions uncovering far too 
fast.

Held bound by expectations,

burying tangible thoughts of a 
soul.

Contradictory in the midst of 
discovery,

creating vacancies within a 
desolate hole.

Irrelevant ideas in creative 
thought,

divinity held within the power of 
a mind.

Innovation derived from 
imagination,

yet chasing dreams already 
signed.

Fragile persistence in 
consistence,

kneeling to a blank drawn.

Endlessly approaching 
opportunity,

practicality sacrificed more than 
a player's pawn.

Embodiment of perfection,

skin forged with revelation.

Correlating wonder with 
disclosure,

upon ignorance in separation.
