Trailblazers' Blood

Rare are those among us 
who gain wisdom 
without errors,

without overstepping a line 
we are not allowed 
to go beyond,

without daring to be different
from what we are
supposed be.

Yet, they're the ones who do 
the perilous trailblazing 
for all of us,

who map out the constraints 
that we can outgrow and 
must overcome,

who, in the frenzy of finding out 
what's beyond, must draw 
the first blood!
