I wanted to win the sun, so I lit a small candle,
Its glowing flame in my eyes got me the sun,
I aimed high for the sky and plunged into a pool,
I touched the sky at the feet of the dancing blues,
Skipping a meal taught me the act of sacrifice,
I read a chapter and preached the bible,
I photographed a soldier and proclaimed peace,
I hoped to clear my mind of few nasty thoughts,
I slept an hour and had newer nastier thoughts,
I wanted to resolve my issues and hence ran,
I took the easy way and thought I had succeeded,
Did I defeat my fears, did I conquer my laxities,
I wrote an optimistic poem and believed I did.
