Shit!! Real Life Happening!!
Another feather on your fedora
You’ve created your own aura
This cute little fragile caterpillar
Is now ready to seek her own thriller
Spreading her beautiful butterfly wings
“UIUC”, she shouts, “I’ll show ya how to swing”
Wise words, by few, have been spoken
But some rules, are made to be broken
Create no barriers for self, only memories
Nor get confined, within imaginary boundaries
The now, is what shall make your today
Tomorrow, a new future to build away
Life happens, then shit happens in life, that’s fact
It’s not what life spat or what, how, we shat
You may, ooh-aah, with a cool bidet spray, no issue
Even say ouch, with a Charmin extra soft tissue
Going thru life’s motions, could be daunting, physical or even lyrical
But how well we flush, clean up and step forward, is only critical
The goal, should not be to make others proud
But self-content, self-satisfaction & touching clouds
Seeking advice, talking, sharing, with all is bright
Always do, what you think is wise and right
Experimenting, exploring, is the essence of life
Go show the world, what you got in your stride
“Business on purpose”, is the motto of Gies
Knowledge, can’t alone change the world you Geeks
It’s all ok, to be giddy and nervous
Go find your why, serve your purpose
So ending this, with never ending wishes your way
Congrats and don’t forget to live and play
