¡Salud! To The Mavericks!

Wed, 02/05/2020 - 19:17 -- JWills

Here’s to the mavericks!

What a bunch of assholes.

 

To imagine a better world,

They have the gall to challenge the status quo,

By spinning thin air into gold!

 

To be privileged with imagination,

They work relentlessly every day to fulfill a dream,

By striking different ways of creation!

 

The nerve of these human beings.

Who would not squander their exceptional gifts,

And instead became the super men!

 

Why should we praise their brilliant works?

What they’ve done has made our lives obsolete.

We’re wasted.

 

Because they embody the human spirit.

The mavericks don’t live closely with their fears,

And instead they push them to the limit.

 

Finding their next grand adventure

That can overturn established preconceptions,

And forever change our entire culture

 

They represent the best of us.

Always pushing the human race forward.

Showing us that we have promise.

 

Here’s to the mavericks!

What a bunch of assholes.
