Odds..
I LIKE ODDS…
THEY HELP ME GET EVEN. SUCCESS HAS NO ADDRESS
NO LANDMARK
NO CALLING CARD
BUT THE PATH IS STEEP
AND SOME WILL TAKE THE ELEVATOR
BUT I WILL TAKE THE STAIRS
SOME WILL GET THERE FASTER
BUT I WILL GET THERE STRONGER
AND MY ADVERSITY WILL BE MY
TRAVELLING COMPANION
BECAUSE WHEN I GET THERE
I CAN TURN TO ADVERSITY AND SAY
SO LONG,
AND HEAVE THE BAG OF TAUNTS
AND INSULTS I GATHERED
ALONG THE WAY, AND SCATTER THEM
TO THE BIRDS
I WILL MISS THEM
BUT FEEL LIGHTER
YES!!!
THAT WILL BE THE DAY
WHEN I STAND AT
A LARGE BAY WINDOW
AND UNCLENCH MY FIST
FOR THERE WILL BE NO MORE
ODDS TO CONQUER
NOT EVEN IN THE MIND.
