Dropoff

Freely sailing
Through a sea of knowledge.
Tomes swirl
Through the dark water.
Schools of fish
Flit through a rainbow reef.
Seaweed glints in the
Filtering light,
Showing the path
For new ideas
And free thinkers.
Up ahead,
A dropoff looms.
Exciting, intriguing,
But it can
Hurt
More than it aids.
So to take the plunge
Or not?
If you wish to gain,
Dive into this unexplored world.
Who really knows?
At the bottom
A strange
Or maybe prosperous future
Could await you.
