un-imping the ossibles

that tiny 
imp 
is at it again, 
taking what is 
-erfect
and turning it to dust. stealing 
what is 
-robable 
and dressing it in muss. 

we 
take all these minuses 
and gift ourselves the poss, 
knowing anything is 
possible if we can (s)imply 
                                      trust.
