Mantra

Roll on, from the dusty annals of recent history

Move on, from the cramped expectations of the modern age

Live on, from the collapsing of youthful expresionism in the face of a cynical world'

 

Move up, from your designated station

Crouch down, beneath the flickering lights of blank popularism

Stand tall, in the face of all that expects you to cower

Bow low, in respect to those who have had the courage to create the path less traveled

 

And never, never, nevermore; take life for granted
