I Just Might Reach The Stars

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
