a long discourse on living

(a short lesson on being a man)

be true to the falsehoods of lies (realize the lies)

even the ones you tell yourself.

be mostly unfoolish, (never overtly wise)

brew your own personal brand of bliss

sell your soul to Love (for the price of a kiss)

know reality was yesterday (tomorrow a dream)

you make the dreams real (one, by one, by one)

listen intently to others (you'll hear yourself there)

watch every little thing (overlook nothing)

and roar like a lion (but, listen like a mouse)...
