Some people claim 

It was the impetus
For them to 
Skydive
Travel
Get a tattoo
Buy a sports car
Purchase the expensive shoes
 
But for me 
That silver streak of lightning
Flashing from crown
Through follicle
And skull
Into grey matter
Created a fire
Made thunder clatter
 
That wild hair
Made me 
 
Not care
 
That it was there
