I sit in a chair
In a room
An open book in my hands.
I sit on a rock
In the forest
Avoiding the dangers
That await me in the village.
I sit in a boat
Over the deep waters
Under an endless blue roof
Called sky.
I sit in a desert
Watching ancient Egyptians
Give the Sphinx
Cold, stony eyes.
I sit in a dungeon
Gazing out a window
Waiting for a prince
To rescue my innocent soul.
I sit on a griffin’s back
Soaring through the air
Wand in hand
Watching sparks fly from the wand’s tip.
I stand in my room
Once again
A closed book in my hands.
