Your imagination will be fired. Life will mean something at last. The most satisfactory years of your existence lie ahead. Thus we find the fellowship, and so will you. ~ Alcoholics Anonymous, page 52An odd promise, your imagination fired.
NASA announced the imagination
of a generation was fired by the the space shuttle.
Barak Obama campaigned for president
telling of speaking in a remote town
to a score of people, an elderly woman private eye
raising a chant of "Fired up! Ready to go!"
It feels more like football pep rallies
than a promise of Recovery.
Yet, how well the promise resonates,
how imaginations swell, grow in intensity,
catch fire when we stand, freed from addicts' chains
ready at last to live life! Imagine!
