Live your life

Live your life from one day
to the next. Then you may
go and try again. The sins of
your fathers and their fathers
before conspire to concoct
your routine. Rinse lather
repeat, rinse lather repeat
Keep the world ever so
tidy and neat despite
what we've been told
of chaos of old:
This isn't how the world beats.
With thy amibition and
compassion hard to direct
the most capricious of course,
Sped off on thy horses
indluging thy wishes
futility in riches.
Think not of the common
fate reserved for all
death, eternal
So be brave, young knave.
For whilst they scream and whilst they rave
Thou shalt achieve that which you crave.
