If someone tells you that you aren't allowed to do something
By all means
Do that thing
Immediately
Without question
Because life is too short for
Should nots
And can'ts
And don'ts
And run aways
You are a soul of finite energy here and now
The world is not permanent
It is fragile
And unsteady
And unwielding often to our desires
So strike out
And perforce put one toe ahead of the next as you cross
Mighty waters
and explore dark alleyways
And hold your keys tightly facing outward
Break a jaw if you must
But press on
And press on
Press on.
