Moving Target
like a bullet through the barrel
hitting the dead-on center
steady on the trigger
as it makes that clicking sound
a full clip loaded in the grip
as I fire another round
it's not close to being finished
cause I'm just getting started
a silhouette on a wire
with circles for my sight
as I fire each new round
I always hit my mark
I hit the switch and bring it
closer for me to admire
but what I have discovered is
I can't hit a moving target
