food for thought

words
to escape by
pictures
to escape into
leaving behind
your supper
your room
your world
for another
if only for a moment
to return
while dinner is still warm
i fear your food will grow cold
but i have no doubt
you are now free to roam
where the wild things are
rest in wild peace, Mr. Sendak
and thank you for the meals
for our minds
that you've left behind
