Forget all the warnings and cautions we’re taught to observe
It may seem imprudent… but if you’ve got the nerve
You can forget the don’t and shouldn’t, better nots and all the rest
Imparted upon us by those who think they know best.
Be careful! Why bother? I wouldn’t do that if I was you!
You’ll be sorry! Just forget it! That’s not what a nice person would do!
All the nay sayers secure in expecting you to pass their propriety test
Ignore them all!
And do what is true to your own spirit
Now and Next.
