Leave while the clapping lasts.
When your show is over,
bow out and walk away.
It’s not yours any more.
It may be dark and rainy outside,
but it’s where you need to head into.
Don’t look back. Leave everything behind.
If you can hold on to your dream,
keep walking forward.
Instead,
look for the fire, and run towards it.
Come on, you still have a bit of fight in you.
What is life if it ain’t with a good fight?
Hone your art, your signature moves.
You’ve seen how the dragons fly.
By now you know what is likely to be the “right” way.
Let’s get into the fray, one more time.
