Onto the blank ground below.
Little by little the bricks stack up higher
And our stack of colors, it grows.
But this is not just a game to pass time.
Each piece must be carefully placed.
If you hurry and misplace even one
All the progress you’ve made is erased.
You see, lining them up from side to side
Will eliminate the old line.
And in eliminating what is no longer needed
You can start to advance just fine.
At the same time, the blocks will drop faster
And your ability to align will be tested.
Make sure you keep your wits about you
So that your skills at balance aren’t bested.
Eventually, though, like all good things,
This race is going to end.
The blocks will stack all the way to the top
And it will be unable to mend.
You see, not all things can be tidied forever.
You are bound to one day grow careless.
Until that day comes you will want to sit down
And spend all of your time deep in practice.
