Enough ! Enough ! What you need is new rules.
From now on you are condemned to only logical and rational reasoning.
You will have to walk with the truth and in an upright position.
Immoral conduct will shame your conscience every moment.
No excuses will be our lessons of the day.
Only goodness will echo in a voice bigger than life itself.
Hence for now in Rome, you will no longer do as the Romans do.
Cold and uncaring will be warmth and compassion.
It,s not to late, for in the blink of an eye, action can spur forgiveness.

Now on a count of five you will awake, inbedded with new rules for the walk of life.
1, 2, 3, 4,

"you are condemned to only logical and rational reasoning"

and that is precisely why my life is so screwy (is that a word?) I find it difficult to think in any other way and constantly find myself feeling like no one understands what I am trying to say....

years and years of therapy...I need years and years....

Paul, I like the concept but it won't work.  You know that right?  Of course you do...

1,2,3,4 i shall awake in fantasy and live not in logic for vivid dreams are what make me breathe not your sense of poetic thought do not think words change me when i alone create the path i choose logic is not for me

Well, if you talk the talk,
then go ahead and walk the walk,
logically speaking that is.
