Growth Options

[racoons > you]

im gonna leave
before i go
theres time to fail
before you grow
growth is a state of mind...
growing down
to the roots
or up where leaves dapple light
you have to forget before you can know
dancin on a sunbeam
to be immature
for a day
beats growth for a year
hands down
down to the ground
laugh and forget
doncha wanna know?
no?
rock a bye baby
on the tree tops
higher than me;
a child
look up to the child
growin down to te ground
six foot down
