The Goad Not Taken


-->
The Goad Not Taken
(On Basic Brainstorming,
Not Weighing a Warning)

Initial Ideas

Beyond all notions we have known,
Remarkable ideas are shown.
An atmospheric freedom waits,
Inspiring ever widening gates.
No boundaries may block our way;
Still forth we step, as step we may.
Tomorrow’s truths may telegraph.
Our colleagues twitter, taunt and laugh.
Reject the ridicule, and stand.
Mere brainstorms grow to concepts grand.
The Dreamer
by Pierre-Auguste Renoir
1879
