There is a little system to help you with your dream Say it very clearly Harder than it might seem
Put the story in the system Project it with the light Soon, an image will appear Almost but not quite right
The system needs some data, To project reality, Clear your mind of dreams, my child, It’s time to really see.
It’ll take a few more people, To make our dreams come true, To help us tell the story, and Focus on what’s true.
It’ll get a little better, Each time you risk to share, Incorporate the feedback, Put down your ego bear.
But the system is much simpler, Than this poem makes it sound, Just say your dream out loud, my friend, And then just write it down.
From Zen and the Art of [nothing] by John Zdanowski & Jeff Abrams, Chapter 11.
