Pie In the Sky

You have heard of it many times I am sure.
      and probably of it abjure.

I have been driven, striven,
      to obtain my little slice,
            please take my advice.

I have achieved my little chunk,
      without behaving like a punk,
            you I can readily you assure.

You can seize it,
      if you don't need to throw a fit,
            of self-serving s**t.

What you really need,
      is plant a little seed,
              and work very hard indeed.
