Fly by
...Who am I
To seek to fly
Touching the sky
Left life behind
For peace of mind
Wondering
Blundering
Making my share of mistakes
In my mind living the retakes
Hard I have I tried

...Hey Babe, it's Me here!
The day's on the run!
The remakes
And half takes
Are for the boss
And the bum!
Hey Babe, it's Me here!

The truck is not
A train yet

And wants me to take a break.

Try To Retry
...There is no retry.
There is not a checkpoint.
There is one try, to get across your point.
No do-overs, no re-do's.
No starting over, no take-two's.
No retakes.
No sequel.
Leaving mistakes.
