Open Ended

don't ask me what's possible;

I start from what seems true.

If that sounds irrelevant,

I've got advice for you.

Don't work for just the hell of it;

please set yourself some goals.

Some people hate the smell of it;

those belong in holes.

The roles that you fill

should require your consent.

The pigs, with their swill, don't care.

But if you do find

a new place for your mind,

if you'd leave all behind, stay there.

But don't call it

unrealistic

to dream of the better.

For nobody knows for sure

what isn't possible to achieve

with intentions that are pure

and hard work, if you believe.
