XXI
In a shimmer of defiance,
we changed.
From stepping stones to giants.

Shattered the crystal ball
that held our fate,
we just got bigger as it would crash and fall.

I've got one word of advice,
it's something called 'life.'
We all know that one, common price.

But by standing tall,
it's simple to intimidate.
With a final, closing curtain call.

Live by your rules,
die with a smile.
It is only, always, what you choose.
