Shape-Shifting Writers

As a writer You can be anything your heart desires take any shape size or form as you please Infinite possibilities of all you can be and do With paint and a brush you can be Picasso you can be Shakespeare if you wanted even host a Coltrane concert if so wished You can morph into a cute little butterfly a magical sea witch a giant whale in the Atlantic You can tour the universe and time travel while sitting behind a desk looking out your tiny window back in time as you survey the future and build castles You can eat anything in this worldeven that which has not yet made it to Joël Robuchon's menu You can travel as far as your imagination can take you You'd be in Paris enjoying a croissant and a Café au lait from your backyard Or basking on the sandy beaches in Malibu from the little concrete city you live in You can experience winter spring summer autumn all seasons from a small tropical village on the East of Africa You can be an angel, a demon, a zombie, a poltergeist just choose your calling You can walk into the world's greatest ballrooms waltz and dine with the grande dames of our time and banter with charming princes kissing knights and curtseying to queens As a writer you can be anything anywhere anytime
