Yes
At this stage, anything is anything but impossible.
I'm in a place where chance-taking is anything but improbable.
Indeed, the more open I become,
The more that new opportunities invite themselves in,
As though too much couldn't possibly be nearly enough.
It almost seems that I don't care about anything,
Certainly not what anybody thinks about me,
My outrageous indifference to immoderation and consequences,
When it comes to my compulsive devotion to my freedom,
Which necessarily puts little credence in conformity.
Family, lovers, friends, acquaintances, even strangers,
Have left me to my cosmos of one.
Perhaps the most rewarding perks of being a liberated spirit
Are candor, immunity to hypocrisy and pretense,
Fierce independence, and, best, a potent mandate to say yes.
