Jumping to Negativity

With a sliver of information
I blasted my mind into orbit
To the furthest galaxies
Strapped to a doomsday star
Rocketing this way and that
Plummeting to dark chasms
Sucked into the blackness
Of worst-case scenarios
Painting pictures of gloom
Waiting for the expected explosion
I missed the star dust
Sparkling in magical moonshine
Forgotten dreamy childlike fantasy
Of wonderous potential possibilities
In the sharp glaring light of reality
That I am making my truth
