One Hit Wonder

He's a one hit poetic wonder Where this one rhyme is all that he has He feels no need to go any further Since he's already given his best He about sold his soul for this one piece Blood, sweat, and tears in every line So why in the world would he need To try and do it another time He has no problem with being known As the one hit wonder, he is fine For what took him only the one poem Others have been striving for, for life

I don't understand Carl Sandburg, so maybe I'm not a maven on poems, but I think you have many hit wonders

Some people strike gold right away while others keep writing for that one hit wonder; lucky ones are the famous ones as we all know (and the ones who win the trophy icon and place first on the soup too!) Nice write Mike!~Che :)
