Do yourself a favor Get acquainted with Ask some questions Dig a little deeper Probe beneath the Superficial surface Ponder a little longer Look a bit farther Think somewhat smarter Consider and contemplate How you define great What causes you to Go astray and deviate? Insatiably salivate? Your anger demonstrate? Your love procreate? Your abilities activate? Your pain aggravate? Your mind frustrate? Your heart pulsate? Your passions jirate? Your head irritate? Your bowels infuriate? Your balls castrate? Your emotions intoxicate? Your sorrows exacerbate? Your joys multiply and duplicate? Your confustion delay and wait? Your aspirations to be great? Your desire for recognition? Praise and self-actualization? Pleasurable indulgent satisfaction? Profound mental stimulation? Intrigue and fantastic fascination? Intimacy and meaningful relation? Power and purposeful proposition? What allures and gives suspicion? Provokes in you a strange premonition? Challenges you unto personal alteration? Self-awarness and transformation? What within arouses such hesitation? Double-minded detours and deviation? Societal conformance and mere imitation? Were you to travel internationally to a nation Which one would you think to happily choose? What life events make you feel as if you lose? Are dramatically let down and brought to frown? Do you believe what comes around goes around? What causes your love and hate to erupt and abound? What is your preferred music, melody, and sound? What circumstances most depress and get you down? What dreadful adverse difficulties beyond your control Make you feel you are sinking and nearly going to drown? When tensions turn your intestines and get you wound? Life is often a whirlwind full of numerous complexities Paradoxes, puzzles, riddles, mysteries, and anomalies Allow these to enable you to know yourself and not freeze Experiential turbulence will come to both threaten and please Nevertheless the above questions aren't to be thought a disease If you can't answer them rapidly as a mouse seeking cheese Just pace yourself as you go through life lest you fret and wheeze Don't live in denial, placate, pontificate, and flatter to appease It's you this poem is about and is intended to awake and tease Open and unlock all the inner chambers to which you hold the keys.
