Life on a Tightrope

To me it is really is so simple,
that life should be lived on the edge of life.
You have to exercise rebellion.

To refuse to taper yourself to rules;
To refuse your own success;
To refuse to repeat yourself;
To see everyday and every year,
every idea as a true challenger:

And then you're going to live life on a tightrope.
