Drunken Ambition



Painting: Son of Man 


I try to stay focused
move forward
The people who tend to hold me back are the experiences 
that seem to push me forward...

When concerned about my goals,
I'm after the gold;
There's a story that is to be told:
About a man who is old
Well old enough
To know when enough is enough.

Opportunities that elude….
is not possible!
There is no way the story would conclude with the demises of survival 
No! means no, theoretically...
But really means not yet, dealing with certain realities…
especially when you are as diligent as Wile E. Coyote 
There's a difference
You have to know when it means go harder than anyone did to achieve it 
Bet; on yourself and don't lose hope
Learn your way around the buckle when your back is against the rope

Adapt, float along the current 
Currently I'm incoherent 
You can only fail if you don't believe it
So I do not understand it 
Why sleep if It is not to dream it? Lucid.
After you rest, get up stretch and reach it

My determination is as dangerous as the devil 
The temptation: the flavor of red velvet 
soft as satin, 
Something only Satan keeps in his chamber 
I threw out the bible 
Don't ask about my crucifix 
I purposely misplaced it 
My moral compass only points to my targets 
I'm a bull in the pin and all endeavors are charged at 

Then she notices and likes it,
becomes attracted 
I love the law of attraction 
If I want it I already have it 
I just pray the drapes match the carpet
If so we soar as high as Jasmine and Aladdin
Either destiny or a distraction
..hold on..
In bold captions:
Now I'm going to wake up and make this happen…
