What Energises You? |

Today I'm asked a simple yet deep question What energises me, what makes me fly? I answered "Give me eggs for my digestion!" 'Cos nothing else quite hits the same bullseye! But then I asked myself "What does she mean?" I leap spry from my bed when being whipped - An impulse driven force, unlike cuisine. Yet there's another force by which I'm gripped; That force (and here I think I've got her measure) Is what makes me adventure, makes me grin, It makes me seek forbidden gems of pleasure - To not get caught is nitroglycerine! Yet after things of beauty and of sin, What energises me's is being tested. When I skydive or race it's manifested, Or ski at speed or as comedian, It's when you challenge me I'm interested: The energy's the buzz; Adrenaline.

LIFE. YOUTH. WOMAN. HEALTH. Uh, boiled all down it is a complicated, but yours and yours alone . . . DNA! That's you, buddy. That puts the exclamation point on everything you do. ~ Even if you are on the right track, you'll get run over if you just sit there.--Will Rogers ~ |

What causes one to energize? Chasing dreams or butterflies, Putting on some new disguise, Two Big Mac's with curly fries (and make sure that you super-size!), Watching girls with perfect thighs Strutting by before my eyes, Catching enemies in lies, Chevrolets and apple pies, Finding answers to the "why's" Without relying on surmise. All these things give me the highs That makes my body energize! Sorry...got carried away  |
