triumphs and achievements

triumphs and achievements
might bring you many medals
and trophies and fame
Nothing is wrong with them.
Only innocence can take you
to the door of your being.
Be wild for love. Be crazy and vanish
into the warmth of the red sea,
Instead of gun
put a book of poetry by your bed.
I assure you,
fear will leave your room.
Kindness will return roaring
and you are going to sleep
like an infant.
Something will empower
your lips to smile
something will encourage
your eyes to shine.
Your legs will be fearless
and can walk home gracefully.
