Smarter than the brown fox

Needing a spark

A shot in the dark

A chance to travel

Above jury and gavel

Just the Rising Sun

On a day already begun

Discipline as a poet

Evidenced in what is wrote

Putting effort forth

so it ain't all South and North

Trying to go the distance

Overcoming undue resistance

A poet can overcome sorrow

Arise to a brave new tomorrow

Just walking down a path

Not to incur undue wrath

Figuring it all out

is not what it's about

The rhyme just ebbs and flows

In this i somewhat grows

Could the poem be better written?

Am i now by snake bitten?

The sojourn into the sky

Unsure of the reason why

I am trying to figure out if i can make the same amount of money working as a poet for Vocal that i can working part time as a dishwasher.
