Out Beyond Ideas

The title is significant because it talks of a place that escapes the one track mind that mankind tends to focus on. By going out beyond ideas, maybe we can experience something more than just simple descriptions. It also suggests that to reach a certain spiritual enlightenment, one must try to reach it and not just dream of it.

 The tone oof the poem is a double entendre. It has one side that looking on the surface has a very matter of fact tone. Yet, if we scratch the surface we can see that their is an optimistic tone of reaching this field away from everything.

My mood is optimistic. Maybe there is a place where I can  experience something that is more than something typical and petty. At the same time, I have a feeling of despair because I have no idea where this field is, possibly in my mind?

After the first two lines, the poem shifts from hesitation to in the words of nike "just do it" because here is a place where your mind can take flight.

The theme of the poem is to tell people to go to the place where their dreams take them. Yeah, this place may be confusing, but it will lead to some thing great.
