I'll carve myself out of the bones of a former me, Shave off the soft, spongy gut making my calls, Leave a strong oak cask, A barrel of good decisions, Or lessons at least. The new me, rough and cut by experience! The sky can shape my eyes, And the sea my heart, Weathered like a cliff but tough like an avocado, I'll resemble myself like a sister, Just more me.
