Advice

by Lucio Durán

Leave your desires aside, the new fears implored. You are no light without me, the bald heads assured. Go, but know you won't arrive, the grey gazes lied. Try, fail, don't try again, the wealthy elders ordered. Discover, but don't understand, the sad scholars insisted. Grow, but don't mature, the single mothers wished. Love, but don't suffer, the capitalist pimps demanded. Let go, but don't forget, the living dead required. Learn, but don't share, nobody's friends suggested. And you, you obeyed them all.
