Dear JaKoby

Whenever you read this, the time will have passed

For you to skate by in life with eyes glassed.

Cause I’m telling you now to get up and move.

And despite your thoughts, there’s something you can prove.

Is there any advice that you bothered to heed

Between when you type this and when you read

That has convinced you to push and set yourself free

From the paradigm that locked down what you wanted to be?

So write, make, code and speak

Because you’re much more than some crippled spazzy freak.

You have underestimated yourself, it’s true.

Now go out there and do what we know you can do.

Yours truly,

JaKoby Cuthbertson
