I Just Might Reach The Stars
1.22.2019
Aim for the stars
They say
And if you’re really lucky
You just might hit the moon
But my sights are bent
And with my luck
I just might hit my foot
Hole in boot
Shouldn’t shoot
But I can’t help myself
Gotta ton of journals on my shelf
Gonna keep on writing
Just as well
Use the words as stairs
Out of writer’s hell
And when I reach the top
Where earthly readers dwell
You’ll want to read my works
And never stop as well
And if my words
Don’t get you to the stars
You just might reach the moon
And when you get there
Respect the stars and stripes
Predecessors put there
Then sit against the flag’s flag pole
Lean against it with your back
Take my writing from
Your astronaut sack
And start all over again
Use my words as stairs
‘Cause from there
And with your help
I just might reach the stars
And that’s where I was aiming
And when aiming for the stars
They say
If you’re lucky
You just might hit the moon
But if I play it smart
Not settle for less
Right from the start
And with your help
If I play it smart
I just might reach the stars
And that’s where I was aiming
