Life is made up of several boundaries
And by the violation of the same.
The project of all living is to squeeze
The maximum enjoyment from this game.
Will doing as I ought this time present
A later opportunity for joy?
Or will blind following of rules prevent
A future pleasure, and only annoy?
Should I eat all I please, and touch the fruit
That was forbidden me, or only taste
The other trees, from which pleasant pursuit
I was not barred - which one would be the waste?
Each day is made of choices just like these:
Are you sure you should just do what you please?
