Carry on now.
A poem about awakening from childhood into adulthood.

Carry on now,
Carry on in every land.

Take a walking stand.
Feel your own fire.

Draw strength to a wire.
Set distance on fire.

Spell bent buried fibers.
Energized by desire.

Splendidly depending attire.
Shoe stuck body gliders.

Dance among the fire.
Build it hot.
Build it hotter.
Hotter still.

Why the bother?
Think for yourself.
Think not for some other.

The chameleon colors.
Spiraling faster and faster.
Layer upon intricate layer.

Incorporate higher connectivity.
Loaded on oxygen-fuel aplenty.

Lets go roaring.
Exploring.
Touring.
How alluring.

Novel astonishment.
Oxygen sabotaged with toxins.
Quite alarming.
Quite disarming.

Trials.
Judges.
Juries.
Watchers.
Onlooking the moment.

Determining the earned.
Lesson taken.
Lesson learned.

Steer clear of being burned.
Getting hit as the cheek is turned.
