THROW THE DICE

If you're going to try, go all the way.
Otherwise you don't even start.

If you're going to try, go all the way.
This may mean losing girlfriends,
wives,
family members,
jobs and,
Maybe your sanity.

Go to the end.
This may mean not eating for 3 or 4 days.
This can mean freezing on a park bench.
This can mean jail.
This can mean teasing, derision, loneliness ...
Loneliness is a gift.
The others are proof of your insistence, or
How much do you really want to do it?
And you will
despite rejection and disadvantages,
and it will be better than anything you imagined.

If you're going to try, go all the way.
There is no other feeling like that.
You'll be alone with the gods
And the nights will be lit with fire.

Do it, do it, do it.
Do it.
Until the end,
until the end.

You will take life directly to the perfect laugh.
It is the only good fight there is.
