Nov 2010
it's as they all say
better to burn out, or else
you might fade away


search for something great
it must both excite your soul
and frighten the mind


the effort to act
always ******* by the treasure
fulfilling your deed


nothing without risk
fear not your greatest failures
for they pave progress


find your own genius
far from innate, it takes toil
unfathomed labor
