Deep Waters - Grook

Sometimes we do things on a whim On impulse we jump right in We should think before we leap The consequences could be grim If we jump in deep waters and can't swim! ---- 2/14/16

Hey, I really like this grook here! I'm co-judging the contest, and just thought I'd send a suggestion. I think the rhythm would sound much better if you replace "can't" with "cannot". Your choice on whether or not you wish to change it, but I thought I'd throw that out there. Not too much longer and we will find out the results :)
