Every story has to have a beginning , hustling and rustling & pulling weeds fit my immediate need Trapped in time is the only crime or a need or inward desire for just more to admire The smell of grass & gasoline mixed with koolaid ,first cuttings free, for practice to bring me up to speed Trials are telling of the ways future elders acknowledge your pay,still skipping and dreaming.payment not yet dire As visions are fed by outsiders & blind fantasy, simple samples may no longer satisfy Wanting ,willing waiting , but a naive train still needs to be boarded carefully ,slow better than the mish mash Finally a chance to earn instead of merely learn ,one venture handed forward but now 100 percent expected to ratify The saying goes, when left to our own devices , now time to play the hand ,make our own brand with no balderdash First question the hardest, wanting simply to know, what you really do not know ,inexperience already taking it's toll Timing is now a benefit , straight up and willing to take on any new propositions can be seen as a strength Not when will you be willing, but WHEN are you willing to throw your soul into the fray ,making new knowledge is now the common goal Bring it to me you scream ,want is over riding need ,just a first chance to cash in you plead ,just the beginning not seeing the length Briskly we awake ,wanting to show unknown fortitude, for new lessons being learned ,labors to be rewarded Sent over there, having no idea what it may impair ,but learn as we go lessons are often left open at both ends Managed to make a way through those first days ,facing larger obstacles can now be gains to be accorded Now a on a pace entered into the great race,survival soon to take over,survival or succulence ,searching for the almighty dollar and the many many way it spends..................R.C.
