Having neither the courage nor the historical precedent,
I raged inside myself like a blinded bull in a metal stall.

The thought
It’s so tempting
Too easy
Seeing as wishin
Doesn’t get missin
And I’m tired
I keep my armor
On and my boots
Laced to survive
Now I stomp
Yards and moves
Gettin out of the lies
Back into my life
I already danced
Careless away blind
Now my way
Aligns with the way
I won’t die
I won’t ride
I won’t be
Anything but God’s
Kelsey with some
Jo—heartlessly full
Of God’s love
And mercy it
Keeps my life
If you have the adventure
Of your life
Then everything that could
Possibly be granted to you
Will be granted to you
And then you might ask
Well,
How do you have the
Adventure of your life?
And the answer is
You tell the truth
You exercise your right
And responsibility to free speech
You
Tell
The
Truth
And then you might say
Well,
Why is that an adventure?
Well,
First I could say
TRY IT
But I could say
Let’s explain it
Why is it an adventure?
And also
Why is it your adventure?
Well,
If you’re lying
Whatever happens to you
That’s not your adventure
If you’re lying
And something happens to you
That’s the adventure
Of the spirit
Of the lie
The lie
That you think you told
But that actually possesses you
And the adventure
Of the spirit
Of the lie is hell
And so that’s not a very good
Idea
So, it’s not you
That has that adventure
Because if it was you
If it was you speaking
That would be
Your truth
That would be
The truth
That would be
Your adventure”
