And then it does Don't ask me why I did it I'll say "just because" Failure to act or participate Is like expecting to high five the hand of fate In latex gloves Better to ask for forgiveness than permission Better when faced with a proposition Start with yes There will be time to question Time to second guess Sometimes the mind has to disengage Or fear will rattle the bars of your mental cage And stage your death.
