Know how to trace;
to recognize your boundaries.

Don't capture someone's words;
hold them with tender fascination.

Know that electric spark in your torso;
is human, let the movement lead you.

Keep those calluses on your finger tips;
measures your joy, you know it.

An elastic band around your wrist;
won't stop the bruising thoughts.

Stay away from armed danger;
your mind may become a war zone.

Listen intently to subconscious thoughts;
it's your mother's playground.

Never let actions be seen as mistakes;
sense the chaos, a good thing.

When your hair is no longer chestnut;
stop looking in mirrors, look at self.

When your eyes are no longer pure;
don't lose YOUR sight.

When time to leave;
don't depart with fire, but a soft wind.
