Sticking My Neck Out

When i was just a child
A parent told me
When i grow up
It's a good idea
To be a little rational
Being regularly lost in myriad thoughts
And daydreams
I only heard
What to me
Sounded like
Be a little rash
So to impress my parents
I decided to go beyond
Their limited expectations of me
So i became very rash
On a lighter note
Such as falling out of trees
Over the top of bicycle handlebars
Building underground tunnels
That could of caved in at any time
Anyway
I only remember this moment in history
Because i noticed
A little rash
On my neck.......
