Where Things May Lead

Who can guess where things may lead?
You learn today by what you read
And then tomorrow, with surprise
You've somehow grown a little wise

Be careful as you fill your mind
The deeper powers are never blind
With children more than ever, look
They're quoting from that film or book

And now with strength beyond compare
The powers that be can find you there
Fear not, but see that none escape
When intervention comes to shape

Then what if friends from distant stars
Came down to mock our feeble cars?
The game is changed and new indeed
So now let's see where things may lead...
