Snowball of light

This cliche of
Do the right thing
Be good
Open your heart.

 

All of it,
A very smart philosophy
Witty, Elaborated,
Maybe even
Addictive.

 

The more light you have,
The more you want it,
The more you get.
What I call
The snowball of light.

 

Look at yourself
You're rolling
Fast, vigorously, joyfully
The ball of your life.

 

Perhaps,
A stone appears,
Your ball is damaged
Some light is lost
You'll have to wait.

 

You want the same roll
So tempting to just
Take the shortcut
Amend the future
Play dices of gods

 

But why
would I
do it?
This ball,
bright ball,
Got me here in the first place.

 

Smarter to
Just
Wait
Get stronger
Run over some stones
Keep rolling.
