The Narrow Squeak Show Chapter 7

Ah! lucky verse seven! 
This time i will go to heaven! 
My bullet charm is flawed 
It's missing a "T" 
Could be a sign of a cancelled subscription! 
You will  see! 

Now , I am thinking............ 
I have been through a war...... 
Dodged the earths' molten core 
That ship sinking 
Space fright 
Pirates... 
and the lightning strike.... 
Is there anything I didn't like? 

Oh yes!,that resulting fire! 
Never liked the heat much 
Too hot! 
Makes me perspire! 

On  with the show! 
There is much to know 
I must travel far 
In order to become a star! 

I am at the stage of life............ 
Dodged death, 
and a spouse with a knife 
Never been poisoned yet..... 
However some of the stuff I ate, 
is as good as it gets! 

Am I taking this whole thing too far? 
but I am the star! 
Of the Narrow Squeak Show! 
My fans demand something new......... 
Something my producers agree too! 

Whew !What a week it's been! 
One of the best it seems! 
That space flight was a real blast! 
Fullfilled my dreams 
Me,..........going down fast! 

There must be something on a small level? 
On an atomic level? 
Lets go nuclear! 
This could be my last! 
To hear about my fate 
One must read chapter eight!
